This commit (3edfb7bd76bd) sets the correct direction of the line by
actually calling get_direction() instead of assuming input if
direction_input is not NULL. It just so happened that previously the
default direction of gpio-mockup lines was output but it would be
displayed as input due to this inconsistency.

My commit fixes it by simply setting the value of GPIO_MOCKUP_DIR_IN
to 0 so that when we kzalloc the line structure, we'll get the right
direction automatically.
