for BCM2712 SoC used by RPi5. According to [1] this chip is an
instance of the one used in Broadcom STB  product line.

The 'match' variable is needless, you can drop it.

you mean something like this?

pdata = of_match_node(brcmstb_pinctrl_match, np)->data;

I thought that kind of compact code was not really the way to go,
at least taking a look at other driver exmaples: there's only one
avoiding the intermediate variable and many others using it (although
in some cases they also check for null, so in that case is fully
justified). Anyway, I've no preference on that so I can proceed with
your suggestion, unless anyone has something against it.

Many thanks,
Andrea
