I like the idea, thanks for cleaning this up. However I'd like to
bikeshed the prefix a bit. Since the properties are already prefixed
by "samsung,", I think it would make much more sense to also prefix
the generic values with "SAMSUNG_". Of course for soc/family-specific
values, the soc/family name prefix sounds right.

Similarly for rest of the value names, such as SAMSUNG_PIN_PUD instead
of SAMSUNG_PIN_PULL, which obviously sounds more like correct English,
however hurts the consistency and could confuse the people writing new
dts files.

Best regards,
Tomasz
