It's closer :)
What I have in mind is a simple wrapper macro defining mux configuration for
straightforward cases, just like a bunch of defines in
arch/arm/mach-omap2/include/mach/mux34xx.h in my earlier patch [1].
And just use OMAP_MUX_SIGNAL, or OMAP3_MUX for more complicated cases where
flags and/or OFF mode settings are required.
For instance, for making i2c1_scl to be actually routed to its pin you would have

static struct omap_board_mux board_mux[] __initdata = {
 	OMAP_MUX_I2C1_SCL,
        ...
}

and for dss_pclk to became hw_dbg12 you have

static struct omap_board_mux board_mux[] __initdata = {
	OMAP_MUX_PCLK_HW_DBG12,
        ...
}

Another my point was, that each board-* file will have all the mux settings in
one consolidated place. Indeed, currently there are no many uses of omap_cfg_reg
in the board files, but think of crappy bootloaders that fail to configure half
of the pins or cases when you delibarately want to setup mux configuration in
kernel.

I agree, that having the macros I'm talking about is more or less "syntactic
sugar" and I'm Ok to live without them :)
The most important that we don't need to add enumerated mux setting to
arch/arm/*omap*/mux.[ch] for each pin that was not there and mux setup can
completely defined by the board-* files.
