Can confirm there seems to be something wrong with the RPis GPIOs. Even tried 
to directly write to the registers from U-Boot, some pins worked as expected, 
some did not. Went through all the relevant registers - function-MUX, 
directions, drive strenght, ... - nothing helped. The pins worked neither as 
function pins (I2C in my case) nor as GPIOs. Some days/weeks later it suddenly 
worked again for some time.

Kind regards,
