I'm opposed to functions named __underscore_something()
so find a proper name for this function.
devm_gpiod_get_array_common() works if nothing else.

So we only get managed resources if the "managed" device is
passed in.

And this function is supposed to be resource managed for sure.

So what is this? NULL?

Doesn't that mean you just removed all resource management for this
call?

Or am I reading it wrong?
