For missing features (e.g. missing alternative functions, missing
support for using I2C-capable pins as GPIOs, ...) I agree: these can
be added incrementally.

For descriptions that are wrong, I disagree: please try to fix them
in the patch that introduces them, if possible.
This is especially true for descriptions that become user-visible:
e.g. set names (no suffix vs. "_A" vs. "_B" suffixes) become DT ABI
once their pin groups have been defined.

Unfortunately some of the (lack of) set names need confirmation or
clarification from the hardware documentation team.

BTW, do you know which devices and pin groups have been tested on
actual hardware?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
