Unless the controller is not responding at boot or after suspend/resume,
the driver never resets the controller on x86/ACPI platforms. The driver
still requesting the reset pin at probe() though in case it needs it.

Until now the driver has always requested the reset pin with GPIOD_IN
as type. The idea being to put the pin in high-impedance mode to save
power until the driver actually wants to issue a reset.

But this means that just requesting the pin can cause issues, since
requesting it in another mode then GPIOD_ASIS may cause the pinctrl
driver to touch the pin settings. We have already had issues before
due to a bug in the pinctrl-cherryview.c driver which has been fixed in
commit 921daeeca91b ("pinctrl: cherryview: Preserve
CHV_PADCTRL1_INVRXTX_TXDATA flag on GPIOs").

And now it turns out that requesting the reset-pin as GPIOD_IN also stops
the touchscreen from working on the GPD P2 max mini-laptop. The behavior
of putting the pin in high-impedance mode relies on there being some
external pull-up to keep it high and there seems to be no pull-up on the
GPD P2 max, causing things to break.

This commit fixes this by requesting the reset pin as is when using
the x86/ACPI code paths to lookup the GPIOs; and by not dropping it
back into input-mode in case the driver does end up issuing a reset
for error-recovery.
