This looks good to me except for one thing: the function prefix. I would
really appreciate it if we could stay within the existing gpiod_ namespace and
not add a new one in the form of gpiods_.

Maybe: gpiod_multiple_set_ or gpiod_collected_set...?

I was waiting for someone to complain about the naming. ;-)

I was going for as short as possible, but OK, the most obvious prefix to me
would be `gpio_descs_...` (to match the first parameter). Any objections to
that?

Yes, objection! As far as any exported interfaces go: in my book
"gpio_" is the prefix for legacy symbols we want to go away and
"gpiod_" is the prefix for current, descriptor-based API. Anything
else is a no-go. I prefer a longer name that starts with gpiod_ over
anything that's shorter but doesn't.
