Yes.

This is mainly due to a pinctrl core limitation. The core only supports
muxing on groups, so even though the Tegra30 HW supports muxing per pin,
the driver must define a group for each pin. Given that, it's simplest
just to do all the pin config on those same groups.

If/when the pinctrl core supports muxing per pin, we can take advantage
of this within the Tegra pinctrl driver without affecting the binding at
all.

That's true. However, it'd require the code to loop once to determine
how many properties are present and how many entries there are in the
pin list. Then, loop again to actually construct the mapping table
array. This is all added complexity that doesn't affect correctness. I'd
rather get the simple code going first, and then refine it later if
there turns out to be a performance issue.
