But is that compatible with the current gpiolib-of code? :$

Because gpio regmap a child node of the pin controller, which is the one probed (gpio regmap is probed from the pin controller).
Therefore the parent’s fwnode is useless, since the correct gpio_chip node is the child's one (we have pin-ranges declared in the child node, referencing the parent pinctrl node).
