Ok, that's good news.

It would be nice if you could post it even in the current form.

On i.MX8M there was a recent discussion about using the new generic
pinctl versus the old method where we encode the pinmux value in dts.

i.MX maintainers are in favor of the old method, so that we can have
this same scheme for all i.MX variants.

Well, that is a topic for another mailing list :-)
