Hmm, if that's the preferred option then I guess this applies to pcie
nodes also. At the end, usb and pcie nodes will be shrinked to below in
board dts:

&pinctrl {
        pcie {
                pcie_drv: pcie-drv {
                        rockchip,pins =
                                <2 RK_PA5 RK_FUNC_GPIO &pcfg_pull_none>;
                        };
        };

        usb2 {
                host_vbus_drv: host-vbus-drv {
                        rockchip,pins =
                                <4 RK_PD1 RK_FUNC_GPIO &pcfg_pull_none>;
                };
        };
};

&pcie0 {
        ep-gpios = <&gpio2 RK_PA2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        status = "okay";
};

&vcc3v3_pcie {
        gpio = <&gpio2 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
};

&vcc5v0_host {
        gpio = <&gpio4 25 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
};

Thanks,
