It's. The user space tools use it as a label. So, GPIO line can have
"name" (this is provider specific) and "label" (which is consumer
specific, i.o.w. how we use this line).

I understand that in the input subsystem maintainer's hat you don't
like dev_err_probe(), but it's a good case to have it here.

Ditto.
