I'll modify all multi-line comments, for example, as shown below:
/*
* SP7021 Pin Controller Driver.
* Copyright (C) Sunplus Tech/Tibbo Tech.
*/
Now, I realized that each subsystem has its own comment style.

I am not sure what order should I keep for inclusions.
Reversed x'mas tree order? Alphabetic order?
Some reviewers ask to remove unnecessary header files.
So I removed all unnecessary header files if compilation
completes without any errors or warnings.
I suppose <linux/of.h> has included by other inclusion.
Need I add <linux/of.h> or other inclusions back?

I'll add the blank lines.

I'll modify it as your suggestion:
mask = GENMASK(bit_sz - 1, 0) << (bit_off + SPPCTL_GROUP_PINMUX_MASK_SHIFT);

The return value is integer 0 or 1, not Boolean.

Do I need to add spin_lock() for all gpio operation functions?
Please teach me what operation functions I need to add lock or
all operation functions need lock?

I think this is the simplest in-line form:
"spp_gchip->gpioxt2_base" is base address.
SPPCTL_GPIO_OFF_OD is register offset to base of OD (open-drain) registers.
reg_off is register offset to an OD register (SP7021 has 7 OD registers totally).
Need I add macros (wrappers) for accessing registers?
For example,
#define SPPCTL_GPIO_OD(off) (spp_gchip->gpioxt2_base + SPPCTL_GPIO_OFF_OD + off)
reg = readl(SPPCTL_GPIO_OD(reg_off));
or
writel(reg, SPPCTL_GPIO_OD(reg_off));
Mr. Linus Walleij told me that he likes in-line (direct) form, instead of macro
because in-line form has better readability (No need to jump to other file for
reading macros).
Could you please share me with your idea?

I'd like to keep showing status of all GPIOs.
This helps us know status of all GPIOs when debugging hardware issue.

I'll modify code as shown below:
return dev_err_probe(&pdev->dev, -EINVAL, "Not a gpio-controller!\n");

But when I removed the two statements, I found both 'gchip->parent' and
'gchip->of_node' are always 0. No one helps set it.
Do I miss doing somethings?

The following statement "if (configs[i] == 0xFF) {"
needs "i" to be initialized to 0.
I'll remove the initialization and revise the statement
if (configs[i] == 0x0ff) {
to
if (configs[0] == 0xff) {

What should I do?
Should I remove it?

I'll modify it to lowercase.
'configs' is set to 0xff to remember we need special process for IOP pin-mux pins.

Should I remove dev_dbg? Or modify it?
But it will not print out anything in normal run, only for debugging.

Should I need to remove all __func__ in this driver?

No, we cannot use functions pin-control core provides.
Please refer to dt-bindings document, "pinctrl/sunplus,sp7021-pinctrl.yaml".
We have more explanation there.

I'll modify code to use devm_kcalloc().
I'll modify sizeof() to use type of variable, that is:
sizeof(*sppctl->unq_grps)

I'll modify code to use devm_kcalloc().
I'll modify sizeof() to use type of variable, that is:
sizeof(*sppctl->g2fp_maps)

I'll modify code to use devm_kcalloc().
I'll modify sizeof() to use type of variable, that is:
sizeof(*sppctl->groups_name)
Please teach me what macros should I check?
There are many macros in overflow.h.

I'll modify the comment to let it more meaningful.

There are 5 devm_ioremap_resource() in this function.
To avoid from duplication, goto an error-handling when ioremap failed.

I'll remove all them.

I'll modify code to as shown below (error-handling here):
ioremap_failed:
return dev_err_probe(&pdev->dev, ret, "ioremap failed!\n");
}
Is this ok?
If not, please teach me how to modify.

I know platform_set_drvdata() function is used to set "dev->driver_data".
I cannot find a function to set "dev->platform_data".
Please teach me what function should I use to set "dev->platform_data"?

This shows that pinctrl driver has probed successfully.
Many drivers show this kind of information.
Do I need to remove it? Or change to dev_dbg(...).

Some reviewers ask to remove unnecessary header files.
I removed all unnecessary header files if compilation completes
without any errors or warnings.
If compilation has done successfully, does it mean all
necessary inclusions has included well?
Besides, before private header files are included,
Linux or system header files will be included.
No need extra inclusion here, right?

The comment explains usage of 'enum mux_f_mg'
The 'enum' is only used in the driver.
It helps programmers to remember or look-up the define of the enum.
Need we add this kind of comment to kernel doc?

The constant array 'sp7021grps_spif[]' is declared and initialized
to have 2 elements. 'EGRP("SPI_FLASH2", 2, pins_spif2)' is the
latest element.
Why do we need to add 'comma' for the latest element of an array?
If we add extra comma, the array will have one more element.
