Return value is different. In one case, it is an error to request "ldo"
for a pin that does not support it. In the other case, the ldo request
is valid but nothing's done on driver side.

Both cases are handled differently by the core:
http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/pinctrl/pinmux.c#L439

I think that's the behavior we're expecting from this driver.

Or maybe you're asking to do:

+	if (function == AXP20X_FUNC_LDO) {
+		if (!(BIT(group) & gpio->desc->ldo_mask))
+			return -EINVAL;
+		return 0;
+	} else if (!(BIT(group) & gpio->desc->adc_mask)) {
+		return -EINVAL;
+	}

?

Thanks,
Quentin
