    Your example shows there's GPIO phandle *and* specifier.

Would "GPIO specifier" be enough here?

   No, specifier is the cells following GPIO (or any other) phandle.

So this should be "GPIO phandle and specifier of ...", is that correct?

I have found very few (< 4) occurrences of this language in (lots of) '-gpios' 
property descriptions under Documentation/devicetree/bindings/. Is this a new 
requirement?

Sometimes it is just easier to refer to another document:

GPIO, as defined in Documentation/devicetree/binding/gpio/gpio.txt

Yes, and what I care about here is how many GPIOs, direction and active 
state. IOW, worry about the information necessary to validate a specific 
instance is correct. And hopefully someday we'll have a format parseable 
to do that checking, and all the free form text will be gone.
