Sorry but NACK.

I don't want to manage another flavor of the pinmux biding with no real
benefit. I would have been good if we had it from day-1. Now it's too late.

Moreover, splitting a binding definition if you have a function given by
multiple banks can be weird and not well understood in regard to our
current group+function definition scheme (Cf. your last example).
