Isn't that value a static facet of the HW, and hence it can be determined solely from the compatible value? >> +- fsl,pwm-channels: the channels' order which is be used for pwm >> in ftm0 + module, and they must be one or some of 0 ~ 7, because >> the ftm0 only has + 8 channels can be used. Why is there a need to re-order the channels?

Why is there a need for pinctrl interaction at all? Is the "N" in these property names the index into fsl,pwm-channels, or the physical channel number in the controller HW, or something else? "dis" would be better than "ds", although "enable-chN", "disable-chN" would be even better. Note that it's not possible to enable multiple pinctrl states at once, so what happens when channel 0 is enabled, yet channel 1 is disabled, and you want to enable "en0" and "ds1" at the same time? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
