What I meant was something like:

static int expose_signals(const struct gpio *array, size_t num)
{
	int ret;

	ret = gpio_request_array(gpios);
	if (ret)
		returen ret;

	for (i = 0; i < num; i++) {
		const struct gpio *gpio = &array[i];
		export_env_ull(gpio->label, gpio->gpio);
	}
}

I have no good idea how we could change gpio_request_array.
Unfortunately the gpio labels are not unique, so we can't just export
the variables unconditionally. A new gpio_request_array_export()
function maybe could work, but doesn't look too nice either.
