Okay. So I'll rename it to gpio_mute, and reference the output pin as 
<&gpio_mute 1>:

+               // Use <&gpio_mute 1> to ref to GPIO_MUTE pin
+		gpio_mute: gpio-mute {
+			compatible = "rockchip,gpio-syscon";
+			gpio-controller;
+			#gpio-cells = <2>;
+			gpio,syscon-dev = <0 0x0428 0>;
+		};
  	};


Thanks
Levin
