Sorry right, yeah we don't know that at probe time currently.

I'd like to have something that specifies the controller type so
we don't need to mix two types of controllers and test for
non-existing properties when parsing the pins.

How about we require something specified for the pinctrl driver
in the "one-bit-per-mux" case like pinctrl-single,bit-per-mux?

And then in the pinctrl-single probe we set params = 3 if
pinctrl-single,bit-per-mux is specified. And if no
pinctrl-single,bit-per-mux is specified then set params = 2.

That way pcs_parse_one_pinctrl_entry() can just test for params.

Sorry I don't have a better name in mind than bit-per-mux..

Yes well there's no need to do of_get_property second guessing
if we already know params from the pinctrl-single.c probe time.

I think we're safe to assume that we don't need to mix parsing
two different types of configuration for the same controller
as they can always be set up as separate controllers.
