Hi,

The generic GPIO controller dtschema got dropped because Rob wants it
to be part of dtschema (outside of kernel) and then
relicensing/rewriting property descriptions plays a role. Only the
GPIO hogs went to common dtschema package.

Therefore as of now, one should include all generic properties
directly in the GPIO controller bindings.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
