pinctrl: mediatek: common-v1: bypass pinctrl GPIO layer in set GPIO direction

pinctrl_gpio_direction_input() / pinctrl_gpio_direction_output() take
the pinctrl mutex. This causes a gpiochip operations to need to sleep.
Worse yet, the .can_sleep field in the gpiochip is not set. This causes
the shared GPIO proxy to trip over, as it uses gpiod_cansleep() to check
whether it can use a spinlock or needs a mutex. In this case, it ends
up taking a spinlock, then calls pinctrl_gpio_direction_output(), which
takes a mutex. This causes a huge warning.

Since the Mediatek hardware has separate clear/set registers, there is
no risk of clobbering other bits like with a read-modify-write pattern.
Also, once the GPIO function is selected / muxed in, further GPIO
operations do not involve pinctrl operations or state. The GPIO direction
and level values do not require toggling the pinmux or any other pin config
options.

Switch to directly calling mtk_pmx_gpio_set_direction() in the GPIO set
direction callbacks to avoid taking the pinctrl mutex. Drop the
.gpio_set_direction field in mtk_pmx_ops to signal we are no longer using
the pinctrl GPIO layer for setting the direction.
