In my staging tree the code is a bit different and the patch you are pointing
out obviously is wrong because the value of 'num_maps' should be the number
of bindings where the "group" property is set and not the "groups" one
which is not
a standard binding. So what I have is:

static int rt2880_pinctrl_dt_node_to_map(struct pinctrl_dev *pctrldev,
                     struct device_node *np_config,
                     struct pinctrl_map **map,
                     unsigned int *num_maps)
{
    struct rt2880_priv *p = pinctrl_dev_get_drvdata(pctrldev);
    struct property *prop;
    const char *function_name, *group_name;
    int ret;
    int ngroups = 0;
    unsigned int reserved_maps = 0;

    for_each_node_with_property(np_config, "group")
        ngroups++;

    *map = NULL;
    ret = pinctrl_utils_reserve_map(pctrldev, map, &reserved_maps,
                    num_maps, ngroups);
    if (ret) {
        dev_err(p->dev, "can't reserve map: %d\n", ret);
        return ret;
    }

    of_property_for_each_string(np_config, "group", prop, group_name) {
        ret = pinctrl_utils_add_map_mux(pctrldev, map, &reserved_maps,
                        num_maps, group_name,
                        function_name);
        if (ret) {
            dev_err(p->dev, "can't add map: %d\n", ret);
            return ret;
        }
    }

    return 0;
}

There was a fix, about the ngroups property to be initialized to zero
so at least
even if there is no bindings defined in the DT the value should be initialized.

See:

Am I missing something?

Hope this helps.
