We can now use the "gpio-line-names" property to provide the names for all the pins on a board. Let's use this to provide the names for all the pins on rk3288-veyron-minnie. In general the names here come straight from the schematic. That means even if the schematic name is weird / doesn't have consistent naming conventions / has typos I still haven't made any changes. The exception here is for two pins: the recovery switch and the write protect detection pin. These two pins need to have standardized names since crossystem (a Chrome OS tool) uses these names to query the pins. In downstream kernels crossystem used an out-of-tree driver to do this but it has now been moved to the gpiod API and needs the standardized names. It's expected that other rk3288-veyron boards will get similar patches shortly. NOTE: I have sorted the "gpio" section to be next to the "pinctrl" section since it seems to logically make the most sense there.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
