Is there only one zevio chip, or a series? Is "zevio" the full name of
the chip, including any version number?

Perhaps one can derive that from the compatible value? The fact this
property exists implies there's more than one zevio chip, so perhaps
each should have an explicit compatible value described above?

Is the GPIO block not also an interrupt source/controller? I see the
following in the patch, and references to some IRQ registers...
