Commit 679875d1d880 ("sc16is7xx: Separate GPIOs from modem control lines")
and commit 21144bab4f11 ("sc16is7xx: Handle modem status lines")
changed the function of the GPIOs pins to act as modem control
lines without any possibility of selecting GPIO function.

Requiring a new DT property is not fixing a kernel regression. You
should be returning the kernel to original behavior and then have a
new DT property for new behavior.

Hi Rob,
please read the entire patch history starting from V1
 and you will understand why this course of action was
 not selected.

That's not going to happen, sorry, you need to explain it here, in this
patch series, why a specific action is being taken over another one, as
no one has time to go dig through past history, sorry.

thanks,

greg k-h
