As mentioned this should be selecting and using GENERIC_PINCONF.
Basically I want that to happen before we look further at this code.

(But I'll take a quick glance anyway...)

This custom horror goes away by using the macros from genric pin config
<linux/pinctrl/pinconf-generic.h> instead.

As well as all this stuff...

Add some more elaborate explanation here. I am half-guessing that
most of the registers are laid out like this and then there are
two exceptions, then write that right here in the comment.

(BTW: this is a HW/driver detail and should not be written in the
device tree doc as was done in patch 2)

No thanks.

Rewrite this into a static inline which has the same effect when
compiling, but produces *WAY* more readable code than this
horrid thing. Plus you can type the arguments.

This macro isn't exactly useful.

If it's just going to be like that, then skip the _PIN() macro.

Make use of these from pinctrl-utils.c:
pinctrl_utils_reserve_map()
pinctrl_utils_add_map_mux()
pinctrl_utils_add_map_configs()
pinctrl_utils_dt_free_map()

Then you get rid of another big chunk of boilerplate code.

After these changes the driver will be much smaller and
cleaner and we can take a closer look.

Yours,
