[PATCH V5 1/1] dt-bindings: pinctrl: extend the pinmux property to support integers array

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Some platforms may need more than one integer to represent a complete
pinmux binding, so let's extend the pinmux property to allow to accept
integer array instead of only a single integer.
