Agreed.

It became usable as soon as you don't have to patch common mux enumerations to
add board specific mux settings :)
With mode0_name.modeX_name the mux setup code is slightly more complicated but
once it's working adding new data both to SoC files and to the board files will
be easy.

I have nether HW nor docs for omap1 so I afraid I won't be much help here...
