AFAIK pinctrl pin numbers are device specific, so I'm wondering if we
should also number them in terms of offsets, rather than absolute pin
numbers. It's more of an asthetic change though. Any thoughts?

Usually I say these pin numbers should try to match what is
in the data sheet so it is easy to understand and debug. Sometimes
pins are numbered with letters and stuff so they rather have names
than numbers, then some artificial numbering is applied, whatever
is helpful.

I'm not directly familiar with the sunxi numbering system though...

I'd prefer if we had an absolute number that more or less matches the
one in the datasheet.
