GPIO hogs also use gpio properties lacking the phandle.
Hence the way this is handled for hogs may (or may not, it's yaml after all ;-)
inspire you how to handle this here.

That's what I had :) but then the property gets matched against the
gpio schema and I get complains because it expects a phandle as first
argument... Maybe there's a way I've missed to prevent the property to
be matched with *-gpio ?

I considered that and thought it was a bit of an overkill (and I also
had a bit of troubles identifying how to register only gpio #1, as it
would be identified as gpio #0 if the actual #0 is not registered)

Sure, I tried identifying how to express that with yaml and failed :)

Please note that with the suggestion offline from rob I will add to
the next version:

# If 'maxim,gpio-poc' is present, then 'poc-supply' and 'gpio-controller'
# are not allowed.
if:
  required:
- maxim,gpio-poc
then:
  allOf:
- not:
required:
  - poc-supply
- not:
required:
  - gpio-controller

Hi Jacopo,

I would have written poc-gpio to match the order of the GPIO bindings
syntax.

I'd write "Index of the MAX9286 GPIO output that ..." to make it clear
that this is not a generic GPIO.

Only one of the two lines would be controlled directly. Shouldn't we
still register a GPIO controller for the other line ?

Could you also mention somewhere that the first item in the array should
be 0 or 1 ? It may be hard to express in a YAML schema, so I'm fine just
documenting it in the description.

I've been wondering whether this would be a common enough issue that it
could justify support in the GPIO core to handle consumer-provider
loops, but even if that happens at some point in the future, I think the
proposal here is good enough and we won't need to switch.

It's customary to indent DT examples with 4 spaces. The existing
examples use two spaces, so maybe a patch on top of this would be useful
to increase readability ?
