Are you saying that we also > have to describe pins used as Alternate Function ? No. The use of the names is up to the platform maintainer (you), leaving a blank string for non-GPIO lines is just fine. Some platforms add the name of the actual function used by the line on the design, if it is not GPIO, sometimes something in brachets like "[i2c0-SDA]" that says what it is used for and explains why you can't use it for GPIO on this setup. But just leaving it blank is just as good.
