That would be nice but what I was really looking for was some
indiciation in the binding document as to what all this stuff means -
it should really say what gpz is (though I can figure that out) and it
definitely needs to say what the four numbers are.

Having them at all is odd - it's not something other DT bindings have
needed and there was nothing saying what it was for.

That makes sense but why is the driver not just requesting by name
rather than having code to generate the names, and why is this mixed in
with the patch adding DT support?
