It's quite clear that this is a generic issue with the msm pinctrl
driver.

For the cases where I've been in need of static configuration of
certain pins I've simply made the pinctrl node itself have a pinctrl-0
that refer to a state that I want to hold. This has worked well and I
didn't even know about the gpio-hog property.

This seems reasonable.

But, this will break backwards compatibility with existing DTBs and I
don't see how this would work with the ACPI based platforms using this
driver.


Iirc this driver follows the same pattern as several other pinctrl
drivers providing gpios, how are they handling this?
