Do you think it is ok? I don't think setting it locally in the driver is a good idea. In the long run, this should go through the pinctrl framework, but there is no need to implement that right away. Until then, I think using the existing mfp.o code is fine, it will just need to be adapted slightly to understand the DT based device names.
