Ok.

Ok.

Yes, I will fix this.

The main driver uses the .data field of the of_device_id structure to
pass the pointer of the SoC data. So, upon match of a compatible value
which is supported by the main driver with that in dt, the
of_match_node() call can be used to find out the corresponding SoC
data. There are included in the first patch (reference:
samsung_pinctrl_get_soc_data() function and samsung_pinctrl_dt_mach
structure).
