Thanks for your time and review, Andy. Let's wait to see if Linus and
Bartosz are also ok with this approach.

Of course :). I will include one separate patch per driver using the
custom set names stuff: gpio-mt7621 and gpio-brcmstb. I don't know if
any other one is also following that wrong pattern.

For sure I will do, thanks.

Ok, I will also change this.
