Currently all Rockchip gpio nodes have the same compatible.
Replace all the compatibles in gpio nodes to be able to
give them a consistent ID independent from probe order or alias.
I fail to see how the compatible change affects probe order or aliases. 
It is also an ABI break if there is not the existing compatible as a 
fallback. State the problem you are trying to solve with this change, 
not just what your solution is.

GPIO shouldn't really have an alias either IMO.
