Let's work from this and change a few drivers.

Or should we add of_pinctrl_utils_node_is_mux() and of_pinctrl_utils_node_is_config() to check this? > +#define of_pinctrl_for_each_function_group(node, prop, group_name) \ > + of_property_for_each_string(node, "groups", prop, group_name) I *really* like this macro.
