<0x1 1>?
If each pinmux register is only for one pin in your SoC.
I think that your definitions are wrong above. We use
register offset as the first argument, not pin number.
And the second argument should be pin function number.
If multiple pins are sharing one register with different bits,
you need to enable "pinctrl-single,bit-per-mux".

You needn't. If the pin is gotten by I2C driver, SPI driver can't get
this pin any more.

I think that you have your own GPIO driver. At first, you need to
define .request()
& .free() in gpio chip.
If I2C function is only configured by bootloader & the pin isn't
controlled by any
driver, you can use gpio_request() directly to request this GPIO pin.
If the pin is controlled by I2C driver & you want to declare it as
GPIO function in
I2C driver, you can use gpio_request() directly. Then the pin function becomes
GPIO.
If the pin is controlled by I2C driver & you want to declare it as
GPIO function in
other driver, you'll meet failure on requesting this pin.
> 3. In case SPI1 is selected GPIOA0-GPIOA3 are not available?
Of course, you can set one pin with two function mode at the same time.
But you can switch it between SPI and GPIO mode in the same driver. I mentioned
it in #2 by details.

Same #3.

Which kind of error message do you need? If you're concerning on pin conflict,
you'll get it while kernel is running.
