I'll add optional properties "gpio-controller;" and "#gpio-cells = <2>;"
with the usual interpretation in v7 (but no implementation...) Is that
enough?

I don't really know what you want me to add, do you have a suggestion for the
wording?

It's not that easy. adi,idle-state is an array when there are three single
pole quadruple throw muxes, so there really needs to be a number for each
desired idle-behavior. Unless you have a better idea for how to describe
that?
