In principle I'm fine, but see below.

Hmm... Not sure which variant is better (as for machine parsing and for human),
but I was thinking of

	gpio-lines: 1,4,6, ...

Also don't forget that sizes over PAGE_SIZE in sysfs sometimes problematic and
racy.(the commit 888be6067b97 ("ACPI: sysfs: Fix a buffer overrun problem with
description_show()") for the reference).
