In general, the *-gpio form is deprecated.  So why complicate the DT
bindings by adding support for deprecated properties?

  1. Explicitly allowing deprecated properties means new users may be
     added,
  2. Once all in-tree DTS files are converted, the warnings will be gone
     anyway,
  3. Out-of-tree DTB will still work, as it's very unlikely support for
     the "gpio" suffix can/will be dropped anytime soon,
  4. If anyone runs the validator on out-of-tree DTS files, the most
     probable intention is to fix any detected issues anyway, and the
     files can be updated, too,
  5. If any out-of-tree code or tooling relies on the *-gpio form, it
     may already be broken.
