I knew about this, but since the pinmux configuration was made explicit for those GPIOs, I thought the original author(s) of this .dts did this intentionally. For example, it somewhat documents the 8 GPIOs that are available in the bottom connector of the OpenBlocks A6. They are not tied to anyway particular device, so they wouldn't appear anywhere in the DT. Ditto for the DIP switch GPIOs. Do you also want those to be removed from the DT?
