Hi Rob,

Thanks for the review.

Okay. But how about the label? Should it be gpioa... or gpio1...
In datasheet, the registers are named from gpioa to gpiof.

Hmmm. Okay. Then I can use the sub address for all nodes. But having a single
node doesn't makes sense here since each bank has its own interrupt
domain and somewhat resembles an individual controller.
