They should but they don't. I should maybe rework the commit message
to say: "muxed to the function called `gpio`...". The "gpio" here is
just a name, it could as well be saying "dmitry" or "123456", the
pinctrl core doesn't interpret it in any special way. What I'm doing
here, is marking the associated struct pinfunction object as one that
should allow pinmux core to export this pin as a GPIOLIB GPIO.
