What I mean is that in exynos5250-pinctrl.dtsi only generic SoC pin
groups should be defined and those more or less correspond to groups
with samsung,pin-function set to something other than 0 (input) or 1
(output). Now here hpd_gpio is just a normal GPIO input used as
interrupt source to detect when a cable is plugged or unplugged. This is
by no means generic to the SoC, because any GPIO with interrupt
capability can be used for this purpose. This means that the whole
pin{conf,mux} group should be defined on board level.

My intention was that if there is something not clear, rather than
blindly copy-pasting it, it might be worth to ask people that might
know. Although any issues should generally be found at review stage, so
I don't really have any objections, assuming that Chromium people assure
that this patch adds valid data indeed.

Will take a look if time allows. Thanks for your work on this.

Best regards,
