Yeah, it's a little confusing. The DOUT registers choose between a number of
signals from various peripherals to control the output value of the
pin. Similarly
the DOEN registers chose between a number of signals to control the output
enable of the pin. However, two of those signals are special in that they are
constant 0 or constant 1. This is how you control the output value and output
enable from software like a regular GPIO.

You're completely right though. This ought to be managed by a proper pinctrl
driver, and I'm working on one here:
