Sorry. I didn't check the comments in the commit carefully.

Obviously, the pinctrl definition is totally different in am335x chip.

bit4 is used to select pull-up or pull-down.
bit3 is used to enable the pull-up/pull-down.

In Hisilicon chip, bit9 is used to enable pull-down and bit8 is used
to enable pull-up.

They're totally different. I suggest you to enable the value in DTS
file and dump the register
value  to check for your own silicon.
