Hi Esteban,

thanks for your patch!

I would add:

default MFD_TPS6594

so you always get this as module or built in along with the MFD.
Otherwise Kconfig gets complicated and tedious for users.

Don't put this in production code.

Look in drivers/pinctrl/Kconfig.

config DEBUG_PINCTRL
        bool "Debug PINCTRL calls"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
        help
          Say Y here to add some extra checks and diagnostics to PINCTRL calls.

Look in drivers/pinctrl/Makefile:

subdir-ccflags-$(CONFIG_DEBUG_PINCTRL)  += -DDEBUG

Nifty eh? :D

Ow this is starting to look hairy.

Is there some better way to get here?

Other than this the code looks very nice.
