Hi Yemike,

thanks for your patch!

Overall this looks pretty nice.

Check the Sashiko reviews, there is always something
interesting there.

Just

select GENERIC_PINCTRL

and you get all three.

What is so unique here that you need your own node to map function?

Can't you use pinctrl_generic_pinmux_dt_node_to_map()?

Please consult the code in drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-generic.c.
