Those GPIO lines should be more board-specific, rather than
CODEC-specific. Yes, some of GPIO lines may be unrelated to a specific
CODEC, but practically it's not worth the effort to split this binding
because of a couple optional GPIOs, IMO. We actually considered the
variant with the reference that you're suggesting and decided that it
should be unnecessary.

Are you insisting that the binding needs to be split?
