Not sure I have understood this comment, but "name" the first argument is
already there to supply to callback to match data. Also, this if else is
needed to know which "name" to provide.

The driver code for the Tegra194 binds by old binding and does not need
this new property, the relevant code is part of this patch series.

Doesn't "This is required..." statement addresses why GPIO controller is needed
for part? Or do you want detail explanation which is already part of the commit?
