From: Linus Walleij <linus.wall...@linaro.org> It is counter-intuitive to have "0" mean disable in a boolean manner for electronic properties of pins such as pull-up and pull-down. Therefore, define that a pull-up/pull-down argument of 0 to such a generic option means that the pin is short-circuited to VDD or GROUND. Pull disablement shall be done using PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_DISABLE.
