Then use of_property_read_bool() in the code to check which
state is to be selected intially. You can check that no mutually
exclusive state are selected, I don't like that an arbitrary string
select the state like that, if we do it that way an enumerator would
be better, I prefer bools.

I am sorry but that is how it was originally in the first patch.
Alexandre's review comment suggested this method in [1] and [2] (below).

Alexandre, any comments?

When Linus and I are in conflict, follow Linus. Arnd's suggestion of
having enums defined in (IIUC) include/dt-bindings/gpio and using them
sounds good to me too and might make everyone happy (no possibility of
conflicting definitions + no strings). Linus, could you comment on it?

I'm fine with bools or enums, just not strings, sorry for the mess.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
