I wonder then what's the point of having written rules if people are
not going to follow...

No, the documentation is not updated. People used <function>-gpio so
at the end it was added as another supported suffix, see commit:
dd34c37aa3e8 ("gpio: of: Allow -gpio suffix for property names").

But I guess it doesn't matter if -gpio or -gpios is used.
