This has a lot of chip-specific text. Will all of that have to be
updated if support for new chips is added?
Then saying that Tegra124 and later..
Hoping, people know our chip releasing sequence as numbering are not in

Have you considered moving this code into the PMC driver? It seems a
little over the top to go through all of the platform device creation
and driver registration dance only to call into a public API later on.
Yes, we had discussion on this and suggestion came to use the pinctrl
framework.
If we do in the pmc driver then we will need lots of DT processing for
getting information from DT which we can directly get from the pinctrl
core framework.
Also client driver may need to have the control dynamically and get the
IO pads from DT. So implementing all in pmc will be huge duplication
over already existing framework.
I don't follow. We already did something similar for the Tegra DPAUX
driver [0].

In the above dpaux driver, you used the pinctrl framework and its core
functionality for the device tree interfacing and client interfacing.
The same thing I am saying here, we should not avoid the pinctrl
framework. The client driver will use the pinctrl framework for the IO
pad configurations, not direct PMC APIs.
