I believe these gpio nodes predate that text, but I added the fields
anyway.

I put them in gpio. That was where I put them initialy.

Correct. Josh originally asked me to split out the warp-nand.c file so
that once the NAND is in the dts, we can just delete the file. NAND is
much more complicated that NOR to configure.

I was hoping dtm was good enough. I prefixed them with the company name.
We are expecting to have a "family" of Asterisk appliances and I am
trying to make educated guesses as to what will be family wide
(prefixed with pika) and what will be warp specific.
