This is what the
pinctrl_request_gpio, pinctrl_free_gpio, pinctrl_gpio_direction_input
andpinctrl_gpio_direction_output calls are for.

Look for example in drivers/gpio/gpio-pl061.c:

      if (of_property_read_bool(dev->of_node, "gpio-ranges")) {
                chip->gc.request = gpiochip_generic_request;
                chip->gc.free = gpiochip_generic_free;
        }

What does that do:

/**
 * gpiochip_generic_request() - request the gpio function for a pin
 * @chip: the gpiochip owning the GPIO
 * @offset: the offset of the GPIO to request for GPIO function
 */
int gpiochip_generic_request(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset)
{
        return pinctrl_request_gpio(chip->base + offset);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gpiochip_generic_request);

/**
 * gpiochip_generic_free() - free the gpio function from a pin
 * @chip: the gpiochip to request the gpio function for
 * @offset: the offset of the GPIO to free from GPIO function
 */
void gpiochip_generic_free(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset)
{
        pinctrl_free_gpio(chip->base + offset);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gpiochip_generic_free);

Yes....

Your pinctrl driver needs to implement the
.gpio_request_enable()
.gpio_disable_free()
.gpio_set_direction()
callbacks in struct pinmux_ops.

Also read in Documentation/pinctrl.txt about pinctrl/GPIO interaction.

This is the mediatek driver internals, I don't understand that.
Your guess is as good as mine, ask help from the other
driver authors is my hint, I can only help with the framework...
