There is now a GPIO multiplexer, so mention this in the document
about drivers using GPIO as backend.

- gpio-mux: drivers/mux/gpio.c is used for controlling a multiplexer using
n GPIO lines such that you can mux in 2^n different devices by activating
different GPIO lines. Often the GPIOs are on a SoC and the devices are
some SoC-external entities, such as different components on a PCB that
can be selectively enabled.
Apart from this there are special GPIO drivers in subsystems like MMC/SD to
read card detect and write protect GPIO lines, and in the TTY serial subsystem
to emulate MCTRL (modem control) signals CTS/RTS by using two GPIO lines. The
