Sealevel XR17V35X based devices are inoperable on kernel versions 4.11 and above due to a change in the GPIO preconfiguration introduced in commit7dea8165f1. This patch fixes this by preconfiguring the GPIO on Sealevel cards to the value (0x00) used prior to commit7dea8165f1With GPIOs preconfigured as per commit7dea8165f1all ports on Sealevel XR17V35X based devices become stuck in high impedance mode, regardless of dip-switch or software configuration. This causes the device to become effectively unusable. This patch (in various forms) has been distributed to our customers and no issues related to it have been reported.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
