We did look into gpio-mmio and gpio-regmap, but they are not quite suitable for
our platform due to the specific hardware design:

1. Per-GPIO Dedicated Registers: Unlike typical GPIO controllers that pack 32 pins
into a single 32-bit register (1 bit per pin), our hardware uses a dedicated 32-bit
register for each individual GPIO. This single register controls the
input/output state, direction, and interrupt trigger type for that specific pin.

2. Write-Enable (WREN) Mask Mechanism: Our hardware requires a specific Write-Enable
mask to be written simultaneously when updating the register values.

3. Hardware Debounce: We also need to support hardware debounce settings per pin,
which requires custom configuration via set_config mapped to these specific per-pin
registers.

Because of these hardware constraints, manually implementing the gpio_chip callbacks
seems to be the most straightforward
