MFP_LPM_KEEP_OUTPUT does not meant to be used to setup the mfp config,
but for pins that have been configured for output by gpio_direction_out().
(Hint: *_KEEP_*).

Also, I don't think this is a good idea, because the patch allows a pin
be configured as output, but does not forces a value (high/low)
and this is not safe.

Why can't you use:
GPIO<n>_GPIO | MFP_LPM_DRIVE_<level>
?
