I was about to say that, but this matches what gpio-hog.yaml defines.
Why we did both, I don't remember. We could probably eliminate
'hog-[0-9]+' as that doesn't appear to be used much.
Long term, I want to make all gpio controllers reference a gpio
controller schema and put the hog stuff there. Then we have the node
names defined in 1 place.
