The gpiolib supports parsing DT properties of the form <function>-gpio
but it was only added for compatibility with older DT bindings that got
it wrong and should not be used in newer bindings.
The commit that added support for this was:
dd34c37aa3e8 ("gpio: of: Allow -gpio suffix for property names")
but didn't update the documentation to explain this so it's been a source
of confusion. So let's make clear this in the GPIO documentation.

The GPIO documentation mentions that GPIOs are mapped by defining a
<function>-gpios property in the consumer device's node but a -gpio
sufix is also supported after commit:
dd34c37aa3e8 ("gpio: of: Allow -gpio suffix for property names")
Update the documentation to match the implementation.

The con_id parameter has to match the GPIO description and is automatically
extended by the GPIO suffix if not NULL. I had to look into the code to
understand this and properly find the GPIO I've been looking for, so document
this.

With commit 39b2bbe3d715 ("gpio: add flags argument to gpiod_get*()
functions") the gpiod_get*() functions got a 'flags' parameter. Reflect
this in the documentation, too.

With ACPI 5.1 _DSD (Device Specific Data) it is now possible to name
functions just like Device Tree is doing. Make sure that the documentation
mentions _DSD as the recommended way to describe GPIOs in ACPI systems.

As explained in this file:
"GPIOs mappings are defined in the consumer device's node, in a property named
<function>-gpios"
So fix the example to match the convention.

As per example from the regulator subsystem: put all defines and
functions related to registering board info for GPIO descriptors
into a separate <linux/gpio/machine.h> header.

Change the format of the platform GPIO lookup tables to make them less
confusing and improve lookup efficiency.
The previous format was a single linked-list that required to compare
the device name and function ID of every single GPIO defined for each
lookup. Switch that to a list of per-device tables, so that the lookup
can be done in two steps, omitting the GPIOs that are not relevant for a
particular device.
The matching rules are now defined as follows:
- The device name must match *exactly*, and can be NULL for GPIOs not
assigned to a particular device,
- If the function ID in the lookup table is NULL, the con_id argument of
gpiod_get() will not be used for lookup. However, if it is defined, it
must match exactly.
- The index must always match.

gpiolib now exports a new descriptor-based interface which deprecates
the older integer-based one. This patch documents this new interface and
also takes the opportunity to brush-up the GPIO documentation a little
bit.
The new descriptor-based interface follows the same consumer/driver
model as many other kernel subsystems (e.g. clock, regulator), so its
documentation has similarly been splitted into different files.
The content of the former documentation has been reused whenever it
made sense; however, some of its content did not apply to the new
interface anymore and have this been removed. Likewise, new sections
like the mapping of GPIOs to devices have been written from scratch.
The deprecated legacy-based documentation is still available, untouched,
under Documentation/gpio/gpio-legacy.txt.
