+ cdone-gpios = <&gpio 24 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+ reset-gpios = <&gpio 22 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

Wouldn't it make more sense to have "gpios" and "gpio-names" ? That
scales better imo, although in this case we cannot really talk about
scaling.


I don't believe that would be conventional. '-gpios' seems to be the standard over '-gpio' even for a single GPIO.

Having multiple GPIOs in that field is only relevant when it could be an array e.g. multiple chip-select GPIO lines. Not for multiple GPIOs with differing functions.

Also it doesn't fit with the way devm_gpiod_get works where you select GPIO(s) from the device-tree, and specify whether it's an input or an output. In this case one is an output, one is an input.
