Again, this will not work. 

It boils down to this fails to describe how the GPIOs are connected 
which is the point of GPIOs in DT. This in no way captures the hierarchy 
of devices. While you may be lucky that you can just assert or 
deassert all the lines at one time, that's not likely to work in a 
more complicated case (such as having to power up/down each device).

I realize the right solution is more complex, but that's the only way to 
handle this in a host bridge and board independent way.

If you want the simple solution, just configure all these GPIOs in 
firmware before Linux boots.
