The GPIO driver only writes to the GPIO registers when a driver actually
requests to use them.  At probe time, the gpio drivers read the current
values from the GPIO registers, so current config should be preserved.

However, the gpiochip_dir hook explicitly sets the output value when it
is called.  It may be that when you are claiming the GPIO line it is
getting set with a default (and wrong) value.

Another possibility; have you verified that it is the GPIO regs getting
clobbered?  Or is port_config getting changed on you?  Which GPIO pins?
