💅 xway_stp_request(9) — ok bestie, let's talk Kernel API Manual

Hey hi hello, this is xway_stp_request from the Kernel API Manual, and she is literally the gpio_chip->request callback. Yes, that one. Come sit, I'll explain 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int xway_stp_request (struct gpio_chip *gc , unsigned gpio );

That's the whole vibe check right there — returns an int, takes two args, iconic, no notes 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gc — a pointer to the gpio_chip device structure. Like, the actual chip we're talking about 💖
• gpio — the GPIO signal number. Which pin are we on, bestie? That's the number 📍

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so the entire personality of this function is: we mask out the HW driven pins ✨

That's it, that's the description, and honestly? It ate. Short, sweet, to the point, no rambling. The HW driven pins get masked out, periodt 💅
