agreed at 100%

no pin number in the bank because it could not be gpio

evenif on at91 and nearly on the controller I known it is the case

yes

but I was thinking to put it as a param but why not

my idea was this

pinctrl@fffff200 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-pinctrl";

atmel,mux-mask = <
/* A B */
0xffffffff 0xffc003ff /* pioA */
0xffffffff 0x800f8f00 /* pioB */
0xffffffff 0x00000e00 /* pioC */
0xffffffff 0xff0c1381 /* pioD */
0xffffffff 0x81ffff81 /* pioE */
>;

pioA: gpio@fffff200 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-gpio";
reg = <0xfffff200 0x100>;
interrupts = <2 4>;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
interrupt-controller;
};

pioB: gpio@fffff400 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-gpio";
reg = <0xfffff400 0x100>;
interrupts = <3 4>;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
interrupt-controller;
};

pioC: gpio@fffff600 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-gpio";
reg = <0xfffff600 0x100>;
interrupts = <4 4>;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
interrupt-controller;
};

pioD: gpio@fffff800 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-gpio";
reg = <0xfffff800 0x100>;
interrupts = <5 4>;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
interrupt-controller;
};

pioE: gpio@fffffa00 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-gpio";
reg = <0xfffffa00 0x100>;
interrupts = <5 4>;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
interrupt-controller;
};

dbgu {
pins = < &pioB 12 0 0
&pioB 13 0 2 >;
/* with macro */
pins = < &pioB 12 MUX_A NO_PULL_UP
&pioB 13 MUX_A PULL_UP >;
};

/* and also the notion of linked group
* as on uart of network you have often the same subset of pin use.
*
* As example on uart rxd/txd is use for the group without rts/cts
* and the one with it
* on ethernet the RMII pin are use also on MII
*/

uart0_rxd_txd {
pins = < &pioB 19 MUX_A PULL_UP /* rxd */
&pioB 18 MUX_A NO_PULL_UP >; /* txd */
};

uart0_rts_cts {
groups = < &uart0_rxd_txd >;
pins = < &pioB 17 MUX_B NO_PULL_UP /* rts */
&pioB 15 MUX_B NO_PULL_UP >; /* cts */
};

uart0_rts_cts_external_pull_up {
groups = < &uart0_rts_cts >;
gpios = <&pioC 1 0>;
};
};

The idea is to avoid duplication the xlate for pins will be driver specific
with maybe a common implementation

the 3 or 4 first fix as done on gpio

Best Regards,
J.
