FWIW I assume single-ended in the spec means it's not differential
like all the highspeed signals on the PCIe connection. This says
nothing about open-drain, open-source or push-pull being used. The
kernel on the other hand has a very specific understanding of
GPIO_SINGLE_ENDED:

	if (flags & OF_GPIO_SINGLE_ENDED) {
		if (flags & OF_GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN)
			lflags |= GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN;
		else
			lflags |= GPIO_OPEN_SOURCE;
	}

I.e. it is the same as configuring open-source ;)
