I had it separated out to make the DT declarations more explicit (so one would immediately "see" that autoset is disabled) but other than that there is no reason why this couldn't get folded together.

Plus, the original driver would hard-fail when the "pg-gpio" pin is not provided (since it was essential for that driver's ability to function). If I change to automatically fallback to the SW solution such an error case would in theory not be 100% backward compatible. I could however more clearly indicate/log which method is being used (dev_info) so somebody rummaging through the logs would still see it.
