[ Upstream commit e0cdd26af8eb9001689a4cde4f72c61c1c4b06be ]

The pinfunc definitions used GPIO_A as function instead of GPIO_1_0 as
done for all the other pins with GPIO functionality. Fix for consistency.

There are no mainline users that needs adaption.

I'm not convinced it's a good idea to take this patch for stable.
in-tree users are unaffected and the only effect this can have on
out-of-tree users is to break them. So the gain of having this is not
positive.

Am I missing something?
Hm, if those definitions don't have an in-tree users, why are they still
around to begin with?
It's hardware description and out-of-tree dts might make use of it. Even
if no in-tree user benefits, it's IMO better to have this included, but
I admit you could judge differently here.

Best regards
Uwe
