I'm not sure there is really much advantage to having multiple gpios
per node. It would simplify the driver a bit not to, but I don't feel
strongly either way.

Unit address should be associated with a reg property, so drop it.

This would not actually compile. You can't have 2 properties of the same name.

Can you add the binding doc too.
