Subject: [PATCH 06/14] dt-bindings: pinctrl: qcom: tlmm should use output-disable, not input-enable

As evidenced by the Qualcomm TLMM Linux driver, the TLMM IP block in
Qualcomm SoCs has a bit to enable/disable the output for a pin that's
configured as a GPIO but _not_ a bit to enable/disable an input
buffer. Current device trees that are specifying "input-enable" for
pins managed by TLMM are either doing so needlessly or are using it to
mean "output-disable".

Presumably the current convention of using "input-enable" to mean
"output-disable" stems from the fact that "output-disable" is a "new"
property from 2017. It was introduced in commit 425562429d4f
("pinctrl: generic: Add output-enable property"). The "input-enable"
handling in Qualcomm drivers is from 2015 introduced in commit
407f5e392f9c ("pinctrl: qcom: handle input-enable pinconf property").

Given that there's no other use for "input-enable" for TLMM, we can
still handle old device trees in code, but let's encourage people to
move to the proper / documented property by updating the bindings.
