You're right. The extcon-gpio driver will not use the "extcon-gpio" raw compatible.
As you commented[1], the each connector will have the unique name to use the extcon-gpio.c driver.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/21/906


For example,
The extcon-gpio.c driver may have the different name including the h/w information
according to the kind of external connector.

static const struct of_device_id gpio_extcon_of_match[] = {
	{
		.compatible = "extcon-chg-sdp",	/* SDP charger connector */
		.data = EXTCON_CHG_SDP_DATA,
	}, {
		.compatible = "extcon-chg-dcp",	/* DCP charger connector */
		.data = EXTCON_CHG_DCP_DATA,
	}, {
		.compatible = "extcon-jack-microphone", /* Microphone jack connector */
		.data = EXTCON_JACK_MICROPHONE_DATA,
	}, {
		.compatible = "extcon-disp-hdmi", /* HDMI connector*/
		.data = EXTCON_DISP_HDMI_DATA,
	},
	......
};
