If you swap them, would it benefit in a code generation (bloat-o-meter)?

Same Q.

Why supinfo should be a struct to begin with? Seems to me as an unneeded
complication.

I hope at bare minimum we have pr_fmt(), but even though this is poor message
that might require some information about exact duplication (GPIO chip label /
name, line number, etc). Generally speaking the __func__ in non-debug messages
_usually_ is a symptom of poorly written message.

No use of cleanup.h?

" != 0" is redundant.

Perhaps

		if (!line->desc)
			continue;

?

It's a good practice to explain initcalls (different to the default ones),
can you add a comment on top to explain the choice of this initcall, please?
