When looking at doing the same for i.MX35 there are a few pin pairs that
are driven by the same GPIO, e.g.:

	$ grep GPIO3_9 imx35-pinfunc.h
	#define MX35_PAD_CTS1__GPIO3_9					0x194 0x5d8 0x918 0x5 0x0
	#define MX35_PAD_FEC_COL__GPIO3_9				0x2ec 0x750 0x918 0x5 0x1

With this it's not possible to correctly add a gpio-ranges, right?

this is an interesting exceptional case, I don't think that pinctrl
and gpio subsystems are ready to handle it.

If both pads are muxed to the same GPIO, then I presume on output it
behaves like a tee, but do you know what would be the input value,
if one line is driven high and another one is low?

i.MX1, i.MX21, i.MX25, i.MX27 and i.MX53 could benefit from such a
change though. i.MX35 and i.MX51 have duplicates.


I keep my hands off it, because I don't have any boards powered by
these SoCs to be able to test the change. FWIW I hold one i.MX31
powered board from old times, but I see that i.MX31 has poor DTS
support in general, there is no GPIO controller device node to
add the property.
