The "label" property is not documented for the dlg,slg7xl45106. Nor is
it common to use for GPIO controllers. So drop it.
Correct it is not documented but it is at least used in Linux also by
drivers/gpio/gpio-mmio.c:810: err = device_property_read_string(dev, "label",
&label);
which is also not documented in DT binding.
I don't have a problem with it because I can't see it used anywhere.
But there are other devices where label is the part of binding. And IMHO this
should be more generic property.
Thanks,
