I can certainly leave it out of the binding doc :)
The pinconf part is essential for the driver to work at least in
the omap2/3/4 cases though, so as long as people are OK with that it
works for me. If people don't like this, then it's probably best to
just add back the separate pinconf mask.

Just for the record, another alternative I thought about is to
describe mux register bits a bit like the suggested clock framework
binding does.
The problem trying to define named pin states is that we need to
add new column for any pinconf value that may be orred together
with other pinconf values.
Currently there are pinconf settings for active pin states and off
mode pin states. And there is wake-up enable setting. So that would
be a total of five columns already per pin with the offset and mux
function.. Then if something new gets added, let's say signal
strength, we'll be needing yet another column.
To me it seem we should rather count on the preprocessor to handle
cases like this eventually. Otherwise we'll end up with bloated DT
data that becomes slow to parse.
The analogy here that I think is closest to this binding is the
keymap binding. In this case the mux data is basically just a map
of few hundred board specific pin settings.
Just for an example, below is what it would look like for omaps
using names to map out the register bits. There are eight functions
for each register. Then there are four active pinconf settings,
and six off mode pinconf settings that make sense. And then there's
the wakeup enable setting.
