HW-specific DT bindings have this form: "vendor,foo".

So "exar,gpio-first-exported-pin" is some kind of overstating of the
fact, but correct.

The bindings (put with the rest of the exar DT bindings if there
are such somewhere in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/* else
in a new file) should make it very clear that this is a
hardware-specific thing telling us which hardware pin is the
first offset to be used for GPIO.
