If we're using the UI board and want vpif capture, we need to select
the video capture functionality by driving the sel_c pin low on the
tca6416 expander and sel_a & sel_b pins high. Do it statically by
hogging relevant GPIOs in the device tree.

I think this is better handled by using an enable-gpios property in vpif
capture device-tree node. So in the vpif capture node you would have:

        enable-gpios =  <&tca6416 7 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH
                         &tca6416 6 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH
                         &tca6416 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

and in the vpif capture driver, you would request each of these gpios
using: devm_gpiod_get_array_optional(.., .., GPIOD_OUT_HIGH);
I'm not sure about this one - the result is the same (function still
defined statically in the DT) while now it requires changes to the
vpif driver too.

Is there any other reason we'd prefer this approach?

Thanks,
Bartosz
