"ti,dm6441-gpio" instead since this came first on DM6441?

Is this a generic GPIO property? I could not find it in documentation.
Looks like Marvell GPIO uses a similar property too, but even there it
is not marked as Marvell specific. Should this be added as a generic
GPIO property?

You are not actually looking at the number of IRQs interrupt controller
on the SoC supports (which is quite unrelated to GPIO module). What you
are actually looking for is the base from where GPIO interrupt numbering
can start. So "ti,davinci-gpio-irq-base" is more meaningful.

That said, this property is probably not required if irqdomains are used
(I myself have to read about that). Not sure if it is okay to add this
property now waiting for irqdomain conversion. I will let Linus take a call.

This is also a TI specific property so it should be
"ti,davinci-gpio-unbanked".
