Subject: RFC: phase out static using gpio numbers in platform drivers

Hello folks,

I've seen a lot of drivers (eg. many arch specific board init code)
are still using raw gpio numbers, which AFAIK are deprecated.

Shall we start phasing them out and rewrite the corresponding drivers
to use match tables ?
