One minor comment below, then this looks great:

nit: there should be some punctuation after "(length %d)", otherwise
with parentheticals removed it reads as

"gpio-line-names too short cannot map names ..."

but we need to provide a space between these thoughts for clarity.  A
comma should be ok:

"gpio-line-names too short (length %d), cannot map names ..."
