The pinmux API is for muliplexing a pin between owners, and that is what is going on is it not? If the bit(s) select different processors that is changing the owner and creating a usage matrix, e.g. TLMM_GPIO ISLAND_GPIO TLMM_I2C ISLAND_I2C etc etc They become different muxing states nevertheless. How to encode them, such as (a) bitfields in the enums, (b) more cells in the device tree or (c) ... that is another question. Shoehorning it into pinconf is not the answer IMO. Yours, Linus Walleij
