That's actually the way I initially had it, however the pin names
literally changed
in the schematic depending on which daughter-board you stick into the slot.
So my plan was to add the #defines for the second daughter-board in a
follow up patch
once the pin assignment is final. This would allow me to have something like:

pins = E31X_TX_BANDSEL_2;
output-low;

in one .dts, while having something like

pins = E33X_TX_BANDSEL_2
output low;

in the second dts

The other option would have been to stick a e31x_pins and a e33x_pins
into the driver,
and set them according to a compatible string or "ettus,daughterboard"
property on probe.

Does that make sense, or do you think there's a cleaner / better way
to achieve this sort of behavior?

Thanks for your feedback!

Cheers,
Moritz
