I'm not a native speaker, but this sounds weird to me. If I'm the only
one, please ignore my comment otherwise please drop this
Actually, to avoid confusion between "array of integers" and "group of
integers" I would provide a definition of what a "pinmux group" is
before everything else.
This is how the paragraph would look like:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
For cases like this, the pin controller driver may use the pinmux helper
property, where the pin identifier is provided with mux configuration settings
in a pinmux group.
A pinumux group consists of the pin identifier and mux settings
represented as a single integer or an array of integers.
The pinmux property accepts an array of pinmux groups, each of them describing
a single pin multiplexing configuration.
pincontroller {
state_0_node_a {
pinmux = <PINMUX_GROUP>, <PINMUX_GROUP>, ...;
};
};
Each individual pin controller driver bindings documentation shall specify
how pin IDs and pin multiplexing configuration are defined and assembled together
in a pinmux group.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks
