Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch.

enable and clear is very cnonfusing. How about mimicking the GPIO API,
with direction_input(), direction_output() and set_value() functions ?
It would also be nice if the polarity could be handled in a nicer way.
There's no GPIO request API here, but maybe a max9271_gpio_set_flags() ?
