Please use "default" for this. We cannot shoehorn OMAP lingo
into the core kernel and expect everyone to accept that...

The misunderstanding earlier was that it was assumed that
"active" == "default", just with another name.

If the above is true with an actual driver patch calling
*both* pinctrl_pm_select_default_state() *and*
pinctrl_pm_select_active_state() in different runpaths I
see no reason to reject it.

But if it turns out that the drivers always use either "default"
or "active" and never both I consider it a pure naming
convention and will not accept the "active" state.

Now it's time for patches :-)
