I think either is ok.
You can do as you wish. :)

Right, it seems currently most places of debug information
has a pin name going with pin id.
So without id here seems not affect debug information a lot.

But i'm not sure whether it won't be used in the future since it's a basic
property of pin and should be nature to have.
e.g. i formerly proposed pinctrl gpio binding uses the pin id like:
<&gpio0 $gpio_offset $pin_id $count>
So i think it may be better to also explicitly define it in driver.
It does not harm and make things clear, especially it's not a big work. :)

It looks my mistake during the data transition before.:)
It should be better 0. Thanks for the finding.
