Changes in v4:
 - renamed to idt,32434-gpio this time for real
Overall looks good to me.

Is there a *technical* reason why this is required?

Can't the driver just default to 32 gpios when not specified?
sure, I make it optional.

Why can't interrupt support be made optional?

It is fine if the driver errors out if not provided, but
for the bindings this feels optional.
I'll make them optional.
Or does the thing break unless you handle the IRQs?
no, they could be used just as GPIOs.
