The GPIO subsystem seems to be made for GPIO pins connected directly to the
computer. The Beaglebone with its AM335x SoC seems to be a good example of
a computer with many GPIOs in the sense of the GPIO subsystem.
And the GPIO pins have fixed unique numbers. No, I don't think that the GPIO
subsystem has anything to do with the additional pins on some USB device.
Please correct me if I'm completely wrong.

Kind regards,

Philipp
