I think Thiago was referring to the "-1" in the original patch as the
magic number.

Leaving the field blank to be initialised to 0 is certainly the
cleanest, I agree, but it doesn't actually /work/.  On many archs 0 is a
valid gpio number; the gpio_is_valid check used throughout the kernel
(including atmel-mci.c) looks like

static inline int gpio_is_valid(int number)
{
	/* only some non-negative numbers are valid */
	return ((unsigned)number) < ARCH_NR_GPIOS;
}
