Yup I know. I tried to use a 5.19 DTS on a 5.10 kernel while debugging
some stuff and was quite surprised to not even be able to reach userspace.

Well... Anything using GPIOs I believe? So Devices with a phandle to a
gpio from an SoC GPIO controller, or some platform code getting a GPIO
udevice to interact with some GPIO. Pinctrl shouldn't be affected
AFAICT, so that might be the reason why most things seems to have worked
fine for you?

Since there's only one board using it, I guess that's your/Kever';s
call, but that's not the case for PX30/RK3399 for example... where we'll
need a similar change (though yes, my PX30 board also boots fine without
and currently has this new DTSI, so broken GPIO driver).

Yeah well... We weren't using the sysfs path but still have an issue :)

That we can agree on.

And also, nothing forbids any board user to have gpio2= <&gpio0> in
their aliases. We shouldn't rely on aliases for anything else than how
it;s exposed to userspace I believe. Here it's a mistake anyways.

Yes, that's an option too.

I believe Kever will want this to be upstreamed first in the kernel
(though I think he doesn't mind if we sync stuff with linux-next, so
that should make it faster to be merged in U-Boot).
I suggested:
rockchip,gpio-controller = <0>;
in gpio0,
rockchip,gpio-controller = <1>;
in gpio1, etc....
in the DT and reading this information from the driver directly. In
which case, there's very little to do in the driver except getting this
number and adding it to 'A'. We could also have a char there and not do
this gymnastic with adding a number to the 'A' character.
Cheers,
Quentin
