This is pretty much OK, and I don't want to raise the bar
even higher for you to get this code into the kernel, so:
Acked-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>

The following is an observation for future improvement:

This is starting to resemble
drivers/base/regmap/regmap-i2c.c

Maybe we should very quickly add regmap-i3c.c as this
infrastructre has had a great positive effect on may kernel
subsystems.

I would:

return !!(gpioc->dir & BIT(offset));

So you clamp it to bit 0.
