cs5535-gpio: apply CS5536 errata workaround for GPIOs
The AMD Geode CS5536 Companion Device Silicon Revision B1 Specification
Update mentions the follow as issue #36:
"Atomic write transactions to the atomic GPIO High Bank Feature Bit
registers should only affect the bits selected [...]"
"after Suspend, an atomic write transaction [...] will clear all
non-selected bits of the accessed register."
In other words, writing to the high bank for a single GPIO bit will
clear every other GPIO bit (but only sometimes after a suspend).
The workaround described is obvious and simple; do a read-modify-write.
This patch does that, and documents why we're doing it.
