This is absolutely correct - thanks for spotting this.

Same remark as Dmitry about the hardcoded length of the string, but ...

... since it looks like this part has been mostly copy/pasted from
of_find_gpio(), can you add another patch that fixes it there as well?

Also in the case of ACPI this will prove to be an incomplete lookup
since acpi_find_gpio() has an additional fallback if the named lookup
fails.

In that respect, I wonder if it would not be better for
devm_get_gpiod_from_child() to call of_find_gpio() and
acpi_find_gpio() (after making them non-static) followed by
gpiod_request() instead of calling fwnode_get_named_gpiod(). But in
that case it will have to do the OF/ACPI handling by itself.

I'm not really sure about which way is better. I'd appreciate if you
could give a thought to a possible refactoring that would improve the
situation ; otherwise feel free to ignore what I have written above
and to duplicate the property name building code.
