I had it like this in my last post two years ago, but learned from
LinusW [1] that the generic pinmux property has a slightly different
meaning, and abusing it for just the pinmux index values would not match
the generic definition.
We *could* use the generic definition, but then this would include what's
in the "pins" property, like I sketched out in the cover letter, as an
alternative to this approach:
	pinmux = <SUNXI_PIN(PB, 9, 2)>, <SUNXI_PIN(PB, 10, 2)>;
Where the SUNXI_PIN macro would combine the pin number and the pinmux into
one 32-bit cell. See the Apple GPIO DT nodes for an example.
This looks indeed nicer, but requires quite some rewrite of the existing
pinctrl driver, AFAICS.

Yeah, I couldn't find a good example how to make it *required* for one
compatible and *not allowed* for all the others. But creating a whole new
file is actually a good idea, as this also avoids adding another case to
the already quite indented if-else cascade.

Cheers,
Andre
