And you say this is done using pin control, elsewhere in the conversation
if I understand it correctly?

So what I do not understand i if this has any stm32-specific behaviour at all,
so that compatible-string has any meaning.

Should we not rather define compatible = "gpio-trigger"; to be used by
everyone? Especially for the device tree?

If it's "mostly generic, a bit specific too" it should likely be:

compatible = "gpio-trigger", "st,stm32-exit-trigger";
