Actually this fields in register controls some multiplexers, which we want to
use as IO port,
see the example:
/|
/ |
| |------ some internal line
IO PIN -------| |------ logic 0
| |------ logic 1
| |------ not used

Well, I going to use this driver on 3 already upstreamed platforms and one
upcoming.
They all have such CREG 'GPIOs' differently mapped with different IO lines
number,
different enable/disable value, etc...
So I really want to create some generic and configurable driver to handle both
existing
and upcoming platforms.
