Yeah, I have seen the "-microvolts", but I does not think add standard
suffix is a good idea, as "input-schmitt" is a standard pinconf attribute.

The only thing confused me is that the description of PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_SCHMITT
in include/linux/pinctrl/pinconf-generic.h says it just uses an custom
format as argument. So I think it may keep something generic?
