I buy this part.

But what does this stuff has to do with pinmux?

I call this "pin biasing" and it has very little to do with muxing.

If a broader, generic term is to be used, I'd prefer "pin control"
which sort of nails the thing.

Renamed of_pinctrl_parse I'm happier with it.

I don't think these things has anything to do with pinmux at all.

But with the struct renamed of_pinctrl_cfg I'm again happier.

The current pinctrl patch set would probably want an unsigned
"position" attribute too. (If we should build on that.)
