When I convert stuff I try to go all the way when I can. It can
be a bit daring if no one is there to test changes.

The patch looks good though apart from:

I usually even go into the defined platform data and try to convert
the boardfile to use a descriptor table so this is never needed.
(But, more work.)

Examples:
git log -p --author=Walleij arch/arm/mach-pxa/

Needs to be just gpiod_get(dev, "pendown", GPIOD_IN); the new
API tries the "-gpio[s]" suffixes when going into the device tree.
