I tend to disagree here.

I consider the bank defines RK_GPIOx to be deprecated and highly discourage
them being used in new boards. They only encode the same number again (2 ->
RK_GPIO2 etc) and therefore don't bring any useful addition over using the
bank number directly.

Slightly similar argument for the per-pin defines. While the external pins are
described in the A/B/C/Dx notation for pinmux purposes, the gpio controllers
on top use a regular 0-31 numbering. Also you cannot name constants generic
GPIO_x, simply because that may conflict with other overly generic constant
names.

So I'm not yet convinced that these improve readability, but they would
definitly need a RK_* prefix to make them specific.

I consider for a people who doesn't familiar with rockchip pinctrl, He may don't know what does these number 2/4/17....stands for in the dts like
 rockchip,pins = <2 17 RK_FUNC_GPIO &pcfg_pull_up>.
But if we use meaningful macro here like : rockchip,pins = <RK_GPIO2 RK_GPIO_C0 RK_FUNC_GPIO &pcfg_pull_up>, I think it easier to tell people this GPIO is GPIO_C0 of BNAK2. Especially all the GPIOs in rockchip based schematic are described as GPIOn_A/B/C/Dx. And it is also easier for people to directly use a macro stands for 0~32 than translating A/B/C/Dx from the schematic to 0~32.
