I do not disagree with the implementation of owibus_bbif.c. This driver
is designed to run on all platforms that provide Gpio. It must use the
portable Gpio API.

I disagree, for example, with arch\cm3\dev\stm\stm32_twi1.c. This is
STM32 specific code and don't need to use the portable Gpio API.

Several STM32 drivers extend the API with GPIO_PinAFConfig. Do you
intend to integrate this into GpioPinConfigSet?
