Being able to assign gpio line names dynamically is a feature that could be used by drivers that do not have the exact naming (e.g. through the DTB/DTBO) at probing time. An example of this is the RP1 driver that populates the DT at late time through a DT overlay. In this case a custom overlay can be loaded from userspace with the gpio line names. Export gpiochip_set_names() to allow refreshing the gpio line names from the driver module.
