Add DT bindings for the Broadcom USB pin map driver. This driver allows some USB input and output signals to be mapped to any GPIO instead of the normal dedicated pins to/from the XHCI controller.Is this a driver or h/w block because bindings are for h/w blocks?This is a hardware block. I'll remove "driver" from the description.Another question, this kind of looks like a pin mux controller. Is that not a fit for this? If not, why?
This driver is not doing any pin-muxing of a physical pin on the chip. Instead it's using standard gpio's, through gpiolib, and propagating the gpio state for in-coming signals to a special register that feeds into a XHCI host controller register and it's propagating the state of out-going signals from the special register fed by a XHCI controller register to a gpio. Both directions are interrupt driven and continually mirroring the state between the XHCI host controller registers and the gpios. I don't see any pinmux/pinctrl driver doing this kind of thing. Thanks Al

If this is unacceptable, I can add the current max in and out valid gpios.A 'should be enough for a while' value is fine. The driver doesn't have to have a max. I'd expect the binding to be updated for new SoCs anyways.quoted
