Hi Rasmus,

Thanks for your patch... Just one comment below

So, I'm not really that familiar with this part and, at this stage, I'm being
lazy to check the datasheet. My concern is about breaking some other users...
So, does it make any sense for having drive-strength-microamp in a non digital
input at all? Can anyone have a working device by specifying that dt parameter
on a non digital channel (or expect something from having that parameter set)?
Or the only effect is to actually have some functions misbehaving?

It feels to me (from your description) that this property is something that
makes sense to be restricted and should also have that dependency stated in the
bindings but it might be to late for that (as some users might have validated
their devicetrees already). On the driver side, if it's never right to have
these settings together, then the patch is valid since if someone has this, his
configuration is broken anyways (maybe that's also a valid point for the
bindings)...
