This patch enables gpio-names based gpiod lookup in device tree usage,
which ignores the index passed to gpiod_get_index. If this fails, fall
back to the original function-index ("con_id"-gpios) based lookup scheme,
for backward compatibility and any drivers needing more than one GPIO
for any function.

This looks a bit scary and I cannot claim to realize the entire semantic
effect of this patch, but if it's the way to go then OK.
Acked-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

Shall I just apply this to the GPIO tree or are you carrying it along with
the other stuff?

Yours,

This patch has a dependency on the first patch of this serie, since it
uses a binding that was documented there.

Maybe you'll want to wait for the ACK from the DT maintainers to merge
this one.

Yeah I realized this a bit later, sorry for being a bit confused :-/
