I'm not sure I follow. Do you mean wrap each individual type in a wrapper
and call those here, like the following?
i2c_of_probe_enable_res(...)
{
ret = i2c_of_probe_enable_regulators(...)
if (ret)
return ret;
ret = i2c_of_probe_enable_gpios(...)
if (ret)
goto error_disable_regulators;
...

Well, this seems to be the de facto standard. Or it would have to remember
what each GPIO descriptor's name is, and try to classify those into either
"enable" or "reset", and set their respective logical values to 1 or 0.
And then you run into a peripheral with a broken binding that has its
"reset" GPIO inverted, i.e. it's driver behavior needs to follow the
"enable" GPIO style. The class of devices this prober targets are
consumer electronics (laptops, tablets, phones) that at least have gone
through some component selection where the options won't have conflicting
requirements.
And if the polarities of the possible components don't line up, then this
probe structure can't really do anything. One would need something that
power sequences each component separately and probes it. I would really
like to avoid that if possible, as it makes the boot time (to peripheral
available) dependent on which component you have and how far down the
list it is. We have Chromebooks that have 4 touchscreen components
introduced over the years. In that case something more like Doug's
original proposal would work better: something that forces mutual
exclusivity among a class of devices.

I thought that without |struct gpio_array| the _array() variant wouldn't
help, i.e. it would still be a loop internally. Looks like I was wrong.

Ack.
Thank you for the review.
