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.

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.
