There are a /lot/ of those. Is this really worth it?

If the OMAP GPIO HW is already represented as a bunch of separate DT
nodes which represent separate GPIO blocks, then I would have thought
the syntax <&gpioN M 0> more directly represents what would be found in
the HW manual? If not, surely the DT should have a single node to
represent a single GPIO controller, which just happens to internally
support a bunch of register arrays.
