Some additional justification, why I think that this should be
modelled as a single instance instead of two different items.

This is from msm-5.10 kernel:


===== CUT HERE =====
/**
 * cnss_select_pinctrl_enable - select WLAN_GPIO for Active pinctrl status
 * @plat_priv: Platform private data structure pointer
 *
 * For QCA6490, PMU requires minimum 100ms delay between BT_EN_GPIO off and
 * WLAN_EN_GPIO on. This is done to avoid power up issues.
 *
 * Return: Status of pinctrl select operation. 0 - Success.
 */
static int cnss_select_pinctrl_enable(struct cnss_plat_data *plat_priv)
===== CUT HERE =====


Also see the bt_configure_gpios() function in the same kernel.
