I see. The call

ptp_disable_pinfunc() --> .enable()

is really

ptp_disable_pinfunc() --> .enable(on=0)

or disable.

All of the other drivers (except mv88e6xxx which has a bug) avoid the
deadlock by only calling ptp_find_pin() when invoked by .enable(on=1);

Of course, that is horrible, and I am going to find a way to fix it.

For now, maybe you can drop the "programmable pins" feature for your
driver? After all, the pins are not programmable.

Thanks,
Richard
