[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Medium] aml_pinconf_get() violates the pinctrl subsystem contract by returning 0 (success) instead of -EINVAL when boolean configurations PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT_ENABLE and PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_ENABLE are disabled, breaking pinctrl debugfs reporting.

pinctrl: meson: a4: Add input enable pin configuration

This commit adds support for PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_ENABLE in the Amlogic A4
pinctrl driver. It uses the existing output enable control to configure the
input enable state, and updates PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT_ENABLE handling.

[Severity: Medium]
Does returning 0 instead of -EINVAL when these boolean configurations are
disabled violate the pinctrl subsystem contract in aml_pinconf_get?

The generic pinctrl subsystem relies on the -EINVAL return code to omit
disabled boolean features. Because boolean features ignore the returned
argument value, returning 0 with arg = 0 when the feature is disabled will
cause debugfs (such as /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/.../pinconf-pins) to
falsely report both 'output enabled' and 'input enabled' as active for
every pin.

Should the check for PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT_ENABLE remain ret <= 0, and should
PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_ENABLE also return -EINVAL when input is not enabled?
