What does this mean? How can input have a "direction"?

Isn't the direction of an input always inbound, into the SoC?

Please elaborate.

This was added in commit 8ba3f4d00078e7a49c60c0bd6298f29402c3a0a0
"pinctrl: Adds slew-rate, input-enable/disable"
by Sherman Yin so let's ask him first.

I interpret it as if there is a single bit setting a pin to input, these
two boolean flags toggle that bit, so it would be the first setting
on your SoC in that case.
