[PATCH] gpio/at91: free GPIO after configuring as input

If the GPIO stays requested a device driver can't request it again.
e.g. Without this patch the ads7846 driver returns the following error:
ads7846 spi32766.3: failed to request/setup pendown GPIO15: -16
ads7846: probe of spi32766.3 failed with error -16
/sys/kernel/debug/gpio shows this:
GPIOs 0-31, platform/fffff200.gpio, fffff200.gpio:
[/ahb/apb/pinctrl at fffff200/gpio at fffff200] GPIOfffff200.gpio15: [gpio] set

I'm aware that it makes sense this GPIO is/stays requested, but either the
pinctl or device driver have to be adjusted as both can't request this GPIO.
I think the latter shouldn't change.
