Thanks for an update!
My comments below.

'For ACPI one may use PRP0001 approach with the following ASL excerpt example::

})
Note, that pin configuration uses pin numbering space, while GPIO resources
are in GPIO numbering space, which may be different in ACPI. In other words,
there is no guarantee that GPIO and pins are mapped 1:1, that's why there are
two different pairs in the example, i.e. {13,12} GPIO vs. {7,6} pin.
Yet pin configuration support in Linux kernel is subject to implement.'

Nothing from this header is used here. You meant mod_devicetable.h.

I prefer TAB indentation of the values for better reading, but it's up to you.

Can we put it like
#define gpio_la_get_array(d, sptr) \
gpiod_get_array_value((d)->ndescs, (d)->desc, (d)->info, sptr)
?
Also I believe the semicolon is redundant here.

One member per line, please.

On 64-bit arch you may save 4 bytes by moving this to be together with u32
member above.

I have seen the idea of looking up the debugfs entry. That said, do we actually
need this global variable?

Seems redundant assignment.

Isn't it guaranteed by kernfs code that you never get here if count == 0?

First of all, this realloc() pattern *) is bad. While it's tricky and has side
effects (i.e. it has no leaks) better not to use it to avoid confusion.
*) foo = realloc(foo, ...); is 101 mistake.

But second, all your use is based on:
- all strings are of equal lengths
- all or none will go
Hence, why not to use regular devm_kcalloc() before loop?

Space is not needed (and actually unusual to have here).
On top of that, try to add -efu and see what would break :-)

Local variables a better to be in lower letters.

Why 2>/dev/null ?

One space is enough.

This kind of stuff deserves an exit function, like
# my_exit(code, msg)
my_exit()
{
local code="$1"; shift
local msg="$1"; shift
echo "$msg"
exit $code
}
(Yeah, yeah, after -efu you will discover that && is not an equivalent to if-then-fi)
