SubjectRe: Pinmux bindings proposal V2
Hi Stephen,

I had a talk with Dong about this binding, and we think that it should
work well for imx if we have a couple of small pieces added.

We need a property like 'mux-unit' whose value can be either 'pin' or
'pingroup' to reflect something you mentioned as muxable entity.

The reason behind this is the DT logic inside pinctrl core needs to
know how the pinmux_map should be constructed from device tree. In
tegra case, the 'mux-unit' is 'pingroup', the core should construct
pinmux_map entry for each row/element of 'mux'. In imx case, the
'mux-unit' will be 'pin', and we would expect core construct only
one pinmux_map entry there, with all the pins listed in 'mux' composing
the group that pinmux_map needs.

And in case of 'mux-unit' is 'pin', we would need one more property
'mux-name' to present the group name. Then we have all the pieces to
construct pinmux_map for cases like imx, where we do not define all
those functions, groups in pinctrl driver at all.

Shawn
