Awesome, that's good to see Linus has accepted the change. Regarding bonescript, Jason you mentioned:

GPIO and pinmux from userspace sounds great--do you know if there are any examples of cape-universal and the gpio/pinmux helpers to check out? If there was a straightforward way to control GPIO and pinmux from userspace with those tools then it probably reduces the need for overlays in libraries like bonescript, BBIO, etc. Realistically I think BBIO will probably mirror bonescript's capabilities, so whatever works for bonescript to dynamically change pins with or without overlays would also work for BBIO and other libraries.
