Currently there is no generic pinctrl and pinmux function to retrieve a
group or function by name, but only by their id (selector).
It would take 10minutes to add them, but I wonder if that's desirable or
there are other ways to do so I haven't found out yet.
Linus, Tony and gpio people: do you have opinions on this? I can add those
functions to core/pinmux in my next patch series if I get your ack here.
I would just get rid of the names and allow optionally configuring them
from the consumer. Just like we do for interrupts and GPIOs.
Mostly, I wonder why so far nobody had to remove function and groups and
release their associated data when deleting a map. It makes me think
this is not required or I didn't fully get dt_free_map() purpose :/
Or, put it in another way, I see lot of code releasing memory associated
with PIN_MAP_TYPE_CONFIGS_GROUP map types (as map.data.configs.configs
it's easy accessible), but none releasing data associated to
PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP map types...
Thanks
