[PATCH 2/2] pinctrl: introduce complex pin description

Using a string to describe a pin in the device tree can be not enough.
Some controllers may need extra information to fully describe a pin. It
concerns mainly controllers which have a per pin muxing approach which
don't fit well the notions of groups and functions.
Instead of using a pin name, a 32 bit value is used. The 16 least
significant bits are used for the pin number. Other 16 bits can be used to
store extra parameters.
