If the hardware is not the same that is already supported by the pinctrl-amd, then you definitely should allocate a new separate ACPI _HID for it. That's pretty much what we do with every new SoC because they typically don't have identical pin lists among other things. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-gpio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
