Many serially-attached GPIO and IIO devices are daisy-chainable.
Examples for GPIO devices are Maxim MAX3191x and TI SN65HVS88x:

Examples for IIO devices are TI DAC128S085 and TI DAC161S055:

We already have drivers for daisy-chainable devices in the tree but
their devicetree bindings are somewhat inconsistent and ill-named:
The gpio-74x164.c driver uses "registers-number" to convey the
number of devices in the daisy-chain. (Sans vendor prefix,
multiple vendors sell compatible versions of this chip.)
The gpio-pisosr.c driver takes a different approach and calculates
the number of devices in the daisy-chain by dividing the common
"ngpios" property (Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt)
by 8 (which assumes that each chip has 8 inputs).
Let's standardize on a common "#daisy-chained-devices" property.
That name was chosen because it's the term most frequently used in
datasheets. (A less frequently used synonym is "cascaded devices".)
