Yep, that "gpiolib" command is also on my list.

I personally also like to rename the device tree commands away from
of_ (Open Firmware), to dt_ (Device Tree). Today anyone uses the term
"Device Tree", the of_XXX is just a programmers view, e.g. a prefix
for C structures.

Still, I'm unsure about it.

The thing is: if I rename "gpiolib" to "gpioinfo", no init script will
be harmed. But maybe some init scripts add device tree nodes
on-the-fly?  If that is in the git tree, I can find it. But should I
care for things that aren't in the git tree?
