You misunderstand. The mux control is only "selected" between the call 
to mux_control_select() and the following call to 
mux_control_deselect().

After that, the mux control is "idle". However, in your case the 
"idle-state" is configured to "as-is" (which is the default), so the 
mux control (naturally) remains in the previously selected state while 
idle. But you are not documenting that limitation, and with this 
implementation you *must* have a mux control that uses "as-is" as its 
idle state. But that is an unexpected and broken limitation, and a 
much better solution is to simply keep the mux control "selected" for 
the complete duration when you rely on it to be in whatever state you 
need it to be in.

Ok, let me try to interpret that. You wish enable a "fan out" of these
two chip-selects for any of the 5 flexcoms (in SPI mode?) such that
these 10 internal chip-selects can be connected to any of 21 external
pins?

If that's correct and if you wish to interface with e.g. 20 chips,
then it would be possible to have 20 states for one mux control and
then reach the 20 chips using only CS0 from FLEXCOM0, or it would be
possible to have 2 states for 10 mux controls, one each for CS0/CS1 of
all five flexcoms and also reach 20 chips. Or any wild combo you
imagine is useful.

Is that correctly understood?

Assuming so, then you can have a maximum of 10 mux controls, and for
each mux control you need a variable number of legitimate states. Each
mux control would also need to know at what address/offset its SS_MASK
register is at and what pins/states are valid.

But your code does not implemnent the above. You allocate num_fields
mux controls, which is what confuses the hell out of me. num_fields is
the number of states, not the number of mux controls! And you also
need to specify an individual offset for each state, and that makes no
sense at all, at least not to me.

So, instead, I think you want to have:

struct mux_lan966x {
	u32 ss_mask;
	int num_pins;
	u32 ss_pin[];
};

And then do:

	mux_chip = devm_mux_chip_alloc(dev, 1, sizeof(*mux_lan966x) + num_pins * sizeof(u32));

(or however that size is best spelled, I haven't kept up)

The set operation would be along the lines of:

static int mux_lan966x_set(struct mux_control *mux, int state)
{
	struct mux_lan966x *mux_lan966x = mux_chip_priv(mux->chip);
	u32 val;

	if (state < 0 || state >= mux_lan966x->num_pins)
		return -1;

	val = ~(1 << mux_lan966x->ss_pin[state]) & FLEX_SHRD_MASK;
	writel(val, flx_shared_base + mux_lan966x->ss_mask);

	return 0;
}

Because, one mux control should only ever need to know about one offset,
as it should only ever write to its own SS_MASK register. And you will
need some private space such that you can keep track of which states
are legit.

I would also separate out the SS_MASK offset from the mux-offset-pin
property and have one property for that value and then a straight
array for the valid pin numbers in another property (no longer named
mux-offset-pin of course).

Or something like that and assuming I understand how the FLEXCOMs work
and what you want to do etc.

Cheers,
Peter
