According to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt, GPIO
properties with a -gpio suffix are now deprecated in favor of the
-gpios suffix.

I guess we should make it clear in the property name that it's the
keycode emitted at push. Otherwise, it will be ambiguous between the
rotary itself, or the button.
