I mean something like this:
mt7986a.dtsi:
pio: pinctrl at 1001f000 {
	compatible = "mediatek,mt7986a-pinctrl";
	reg = <0 0x1001f000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11c30000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11c40000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11e20000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11e30000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11f00000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x11f10000 0 0x1000>,
	      <0 0x1000b000 0 0x1000>;
	reg-names = "gpio", "iocfg_rt", "iocfg_rb", "iocfg_lt",
		    "iocfg_lb", "iocfg_tr", "iocfg_tl", "eint";
	gpio-controller;
	#gpio-cells = <2>;
	gpio-ranges = <&pio 0 0 100>;
	interrupt-controller;
	interrupts = <GIC_SPI 225 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
	#interrupt-cells = <2>;
};

mt7986b.dtsi:
#include "mt7986a.dtsi"

&pio {
      compatible = "mediatek,mt7986b-pinctrl";
      gpio-ranges = <&pio 0 0 41>, <&pio 66 66 35>;
}

mt7986b-rfb.dts:
#include "mt7986b.dtsi"

&pio {
	uart1_pins: uart1-pins {
		mux { [...]


mt7986a-rfb.dts:
#include "mt7986a.dtsi"

&pio {
	uart1_pins: uart1-pins {
		mux { [...]


Makes sense?
