Thank you for all of the feedback you have provided Krzysztof,

It indeed is a bug that was introduced early on. I attempted
previously to correct this issue separately here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230130220056.14349-2-nick.hawkins@hpe.com/

I see though that I have made some of the mistakes you mentioned above.
I will resubmit.

Although the design is likely to change I will use a format similar to
gpio-line-names you mentioned previously.

Thanks,
