Hi Billy,

This series updates pinctrl-single to behave more predictably on
bit-per-mux platforms by making its DT interface more flexible, its probe
path more tolerant of pre-reserved resources, and its pin configuration
register addressing consistent with pinmux.
Can you provide some more context here? For instance, this is motivated
by the AST2700 - can you talk a bit more about why its design needs
these changes?
It extends the driver to accept a per-pin <pin_index func_sel> style
description for bit-per-mux users while keeping the existing
pinctrl-single,bits binding as the preferred input when available. It also
relaxes probe failure when the I/O memory region cannot be reserved
exclusively, allowing initialization to proceed with a warning on systems
where that region is already reserved.
Can you unpack what's going on here in the context of the target soc?

Andrew
 Finally, it aligns pinconf register
offset computation with the pinmux logic so that both muxing and pin
configuration access the same register offsets, avoiding incorrect pinconf
operations on bit-per-mux configurations.
