[RFC PATCH 6/9] pinctrl: sunxi: add support for set/clear regs

The Allwinner pinctrl/GPIO IP so far features just a single GPIO data
register, which holds the logic level for every output pin on each port.
To set or clear the level of a single pin, we need to do a
read/modify/write operation, which needs to be protected by a lock.

The new pinctrl IP introduced with the Allwinner A733 now supports two
extra registers, the value of which will be ORed in respectively NANDed
out from the current value when being written. This allows for lockless
single writes to set or clear GPIO pins.

Add support for this feature to the sunxi pinctrl code, by adding a quirk
bit and checking this when writing to the data register. If the new
registers are available, skip the lock and read/modify/write operation,
and just write the mask directly to the respective register.
