v6:
 - Instead of combining the pin nr and func into a single element, use
   a pair of 8-bit elements.

+- Pin multiplexing sub-nodes:
+  A pin multiplexing sub-node describes how to configure a set of
+  (or a single) pin in some desired alternate function mode.
+  A single sub-node may define several pin configurations.
+  Please refer to pinctrl-bindings.txt to get to know more on generic
+  pin properties usage.
+
+  The allowed generic formats for a pin multiplexing sub-node are the
+  following ones:
+
+  node-1 {
+      pinmux = /bits/ 8 <PIN_NR MUX_FUNC>, <PIN_NR MUX_FUNC>, ... ;
+      GENERIC_PINCONFIG;
+  };

and

+  Example:
+  A serial communication interface with a TX output pin and an RX input pin.
+
+  &pinctrl {
+       pins_uart0: pins_uart0 {
+               pinmux = /bits/ 8 <
+                       103 RZN1_FUNC_UART0_I   /* UART0_TXD */
+                       104 RZN1_FUNC_UART0_I   /* UART0_RXD */
+               >;
+       };
+  };

So the above is in response to Rob's comment on v4:

| > +       (((RZN1_FUNC_##_func) << 8) | (_gpio))

I'm not so much impressed by the "/bits/ 8" part.
No other pinctrl bindings uses this.
We do have RZA1_PINMUX() and STM32_PINMUX() macros.

Rob: Is this really what you intended?

Thanks!
