pinctrl bindings can benefit from generic property names that define
which pins a "pin configuration node" affects, and which mux function
to select onto those pins. Document new properties for this purpose so
that other bindings may refer to them.

 Supported generic properties are:
 
+pins			- the list of pins that properties in the node
+			  apply to
+function		- the mux function to select

I assume the type of these properties must be described in the more
specific binding?

Yes, I think so. I guess I should also add entries into the section
right below this list which describes the values for each of the
properties that has values.
