I doubt this is "GPIO".
General Purpose? I think not. It seems to be about boot mode.

If you need a userspace ABI, then add sysfs files to this firmware
driver instead of bridging it to the GPIO subsystem.

However I can be argued down from usecases etc that it is used as
GPIO but I need to push back on this.
