Similar Q as below.

Why do you need gc label here and not gdev? In other code you switched over (in
a patch before this in the series).

Ditto.

Hmm... I can't imagine how this value may anyhow be used / useful.

With above said, can't we use one of VALIDATE_DESC*() macro here?

Seems like a candidate for

#define gpio_for_each_device(...) ...

Not sure if it would be good to have a respective VALIDATE_DESC_GUARDED()
or so. At least it may deduplicate a few cases.

gpio_chip_guard()
