Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] dt-bindings: gpio: add gpio-line-mux controller

Add dt-schema for a gpio-line-mux controller which exposes virtual
GPIOs for a shared GPIO controlled by a multiplexer, e.g. a gpio-mux.

The gpio-line-mux controller is a gpio-controller, thus has mostly the
same semantics. However, it requires a mux-control to be specified upon
which it will operate.

+description: |
+  A GPIO controller to provide virtual GPIOs for a 1-to-many input-only mapping
+  backed by a single shared GPIO and a multiplexer. A simple illustrated
+  example is
+
+            +----- A
+    IN     /
+    <-----o------- B
+        / |\
+        | | +----- C
+        | |  \
+        | |   +--- D
+        | |
+       M1 M0
+
+    MUX CONTROL
+
+     M1 M0   IN
+      0  0   A
+      0  1   B
+      1  0   C
+      1  1   D
+
+  This can be used in case a real GPIO is connected to multiple inputs and
+  controlled by a multiplexer, and another subsystem/driver does not work
+  directly with the multiplexer subsystem.
