When you add DT bindings you have to CC devicetree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

These look fine to me though.

Thanks for patching this!

As mentioned

depends on GPIOLIB
depends on OF

Use only:

#include <linux/gpio/consumer.h>

Should not be needed.

Do not use the global GPIO number space, use GPIO descriptors.

Example:
drivers/input/keyboard/gpio_keys.c

This seems overengineered, is this really needed?

If we have races like this, the error is likely elsewhere, and should be
fixed in the GPIO driver MMIO access or so.

No use GPIO descriptors please.

Delete comments or convert to dev_dbg()

With GPIO descriptors you should just gpiod_get(dev, "foo", FLAG);
No need to poke around in the device tree like this.

Error checks and deferrals apply as usual though.

So devm_gpiod_get(...)

And incidentallt then you can just specify GPIOD_IN as flag and
it will be set up for you.
