So if you have the luxury of being able to influence (file bugs against or write) the platform enumeration ABI then with ACPI you can have a named gpio today. Note: there is an expectation that the _PRP feature to go into the next version of ACPI and that should enable a trivial 1-1 mapping (when _prp is used by the ACPI platform) between the different platform enumeration API's (DT and ACPI).
Oh I wasn't aware. This makes things better, and gives con_id a clear usecase in the ACPI probe path as well. [Stephen]

If there were ever an (upstream?) ACPI "binding"(?) for the Tegra SDHCI controller, I would hope it would use the exact same names for the GPIO signals.me to!
Amen to that. Yours, Linus Walleij
