+ * DOC: GPIO/LED functions
+ *
+ * Here we control the 6 bidirectional GPIO pins provided by the hw.
+ * We can set a GPIO pin to be an input or an output pin on GPIO control
+ * register and then read or set its status from GPIO data input/output
+ * registers.
+ *
+ * We also control the two LED pins provided by the hw, LED_0 is our
+ * "power" LED and LED_1 is our "network activity" LED but many scenarios
+ * are available from hw. Vendors might also provide LEDs connected to the
+ * GPIO pins, we handle them through the LED subsystem on led.c
