Hm. Some sequencing problem right? Like you count on
bias-high-impdedance being set in some other state?

I think each state should be self-contained, so you set
all the stuff you need in a state, do not rely on things coming
in pre-set from another state.

So in this case just set bias-high-impedance; then and
if the state does not have bias-pull-up, *always* disable it
in the driver.

Okay then.

Again it seems to be a sequencing problem. And device tree is
not good at sequences, therefore all states should be self-contained.
