Commit 28f240683871 ("pinctrl: meson: mark the GPIO controller as
sleeping") set gpio_chip.can_sleep = true to work around
gpio-shared-proxy holding a spinlock across a sleeping pinctrl config
path. That locking bug is now fixed in the shared-proxy itself ("gpio:
shared-proxy: always serialize with a sleeping mutex"), so the
controller-wide workaround is no longer needed; the meson GPIO
controller does not sleep.

meson_gpio_get/set/direction_* access MMIO through regmap. The
regmap_mmio bus uses fast I/O (spinlock) locking, so these value
callbacks do not contain sleeping operations. Since gpio_chip.can_sleep
describes the get/set value path, restore can_sleep = false.

Marking the controller sleeping also broke atomic value consumers such
as w1-gpio (1-Wire bitbang): w1_io.c runs its read time slot under
local_irq_save() and uses the non-cansleep gpiod_set_value() /
gpiod_get_value(), which with can_sleep=true trigger WARN_ON(can_sleep)
in gpiolib on every transferred bit (from w1_gpio_write_bit() /
w1_gpio_read_bit() via w1_reset_bus() and w1_search()). The printk and
stack dump inside the IRQs-off, microsecond-scale time slot destroy the
bit timing, so reset/presence detection and ROM search fail: the bus
master registers but w1_master_slave_count stays at 0 and no devices
are found. Verified on an Amlogic A113X board (DS18B20 on GPIOA_14):
with can_sleep restored to false the warnings are gone and the sensor
is detected and read again.

This must not be applied or backported without the shared-proxy locking
fix above; otherwise the original Khadas VIM3 splat returns on boards
that genuinely share a meson GPIO.
