I meant that we double write values in the out() which might have some
consequences, though I hope nothing wrong with it happens.

In the in() we read the all bits in the register.

As now I look at the implementation of mctrl_gpio_get_outputs(),
I think we rather get helpers for conversion between TIOCM and UART_MCR values,
so, they can be used in get_mctrl() / set_mctrl() and above.

The logic now is understandable to me (I was confused by the conversions here
and there).
