Well because of its semantics. It's a constant and is definitely a
common parameter for any device. So const-macro-based parametrization
like

/*
...
 */
#define GPIO_LATCH_DURATION_NS_MAX		5000

placed above the struct gpio_latch_priv declaration with the same
comment would be more appropriate than a pre-initialized local
variable. Thus the capitalized name could be right away read that the
parameter is a constant and common for all the devices. In your
implementation it isn't obvious from the variable usage context. I had
to parse the whole gpio_latch_probe() method to understand that.
