Hi Billy,

I'd like it if we were a bit more specific in the commit message, and even 
better if we update the comment in the code. A quick look at the code suggests 
this issue affects GPIO banks D and E in the AST2400 and AST2500, and banks T 
and U in the AST2600.

Functionally I think the patch is fine.

Cheers,

Andrew
