I totally agree. I was actually experimenting on our platform (TYAN S7106)
to name GPIO pins in the DTS, but I couldn't figure out how to read those
names from userspace.

Here's what I tried in the DTS:

&gpio {
        pin_gpio_d2 {
                gpios = <ASPEED_GPIO(D, 2) GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
                input;
                line-name = "SYS_PWROK_BUF";
        };
...

However, from what I can tell line-name is actually only relevant when used
together with "gpiohog", which is not what we want.

Did you manage to make this work?

Thanks
Oskar.
