Fair point!

Nope, only compile testing. The important part of this series is to
clean up of_node from GPIO library, so since here it's a user of
it I want to do that. This patch is just ad-hoc conversion that I
noticed is possible. But there is no any requirement to do so.

Lemme drop this from v3.
