First: this looks awesome to me,

Second: since this is kind of a first... could we move the standard GPIOchip
YAML business into a generic gpiochip .yaml file?

We currently only have pl061-gpio.yaml and this would duplicate a lot
of the stuff from that yaml file.

If you look at how
display/panel/panel-common.yaml
is used from say
display/panel/ti,nspire.yaml

Could we do something similar and lift out all the generics from
gpio-pl061.yaml to
gpio-common.yaml
and reference that also in the new binding?

If it seems hard, tell me and I can take a stab at it.

Yours,
