For me the highest priority is that it works. And that does not depend
on the specific node name. The pinmux node is only referenced through a phandle,
which is translated into a pure numeric code by DTC.

Another argument could be that the w2sg0004 chip was introduced ca. 2007
when GPS was (AFAIR) the only GNSS system widely available and the only one
supported by the chip. So this would be an argument for "gps" since it
is a "GPS only" receiver chip.

Since the DT should describe specific hardware, it maybe should somehow
codify that the chip is GPS only and is not a generic gnss chip (although
the driver knows that as well).

BR,
Nikolaus
