Well, they seem pretty normal to me, and have been used by many:

  commit 82ab86e82911107ead6fc7cd73568f75bc266a57
  Author: Mark Brown <broonie@...nel.org>
  Date:   Mon Oct 30 19:40:25 2017 +0000
  
      Revert "ASoC: rt5651: Enable jack detection on JD* pins"
      
      This reverts commit 60d5a1a47b9a8381c08d2263b11ac9c757c87746.
      
      Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@...nel.org>

Anyway, I'll update them in v3.
