It's an interesting way of saying this?

	struct property_entry properties[2] = { };

I assumed that lflags shouldn't be signed. And IIRC they are unsigned long
elsewhere (yes, just confirmed).

Can save 1 LoC?

	rgpio_dev->swnode = fwnode_create_software_node(properties, NULL);
	ret = PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(rgpio_dev->swnode);
	if (ret)
		goto err_put_of_node;
