Hi Andy!

Unfortunately while this may fix the particular use-case on STM32, it
breaks all other users as the 'gpio-line-names' property doesn't live
on dev_fwnode(&gdev->dev) but on dev_fwnode(chip->parent).

How about we first look for this property on the latter and only if
it's not present descend down to the former fwnode?
