This has been done in order to align the DT of U-Boot with the DT of Linux. In Linux, a phandle from a '-gpio' DT property is linked to the pinctrl driver, a single driver that handles both pinctrl settings and offers GPIO API to callers. On the other hand, U-Boot redirects such phandle to a corresponding UCLASS_GPIO driver, because U-Boot offers two different types of drivers in this case: UCLASS_PINCTRL which handles pin functions and UCLASS_GPIO which handles gpio requests as a gpio provider. Due to this, we have two drivers in Uboot, but the Devicetree has a single node. Thus, just one of the drivers can be probed for the DT node during platform initialization, before relocation. Our previous solution in U-Boot was to have a different devicetree: the gpio node has a subnode for the pinctrl driver, which is not compliant with Linux ABI. Furthermore, our documentation for this type of nodes mentions no such gpio compatible. After this patch, we can no longer add nodes with a gpio compatible in the DT. Thus, in order to link the pinctrl driver to the gpio one, a hook to the bind method of the former in U-Boot has been added and the GPIO related compatibles have been removed to avoid conflict when compatibles are enumerated and bound to drivers during platform start before relocation. The bind method will attach the GPIO driver to the pinctrl DT node so that every phandle coming from '-gpio' DT properties will be redirected to a valid driver attached to the pinctrl DT node.
