I'm all ears :-) . And yes I do agree with you that this is not very
elegant right now.

The issue is that the pinconf part for PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT is actually
using the gpio controller to realize this setting. So when this ends up
in a pinctrl-hog, stuff explodes while probing the first pinctrl part.

I guess one way would be to somehow only do the pinctrl-hogs
_after_ all parts have probed.


Thinking about this, the component framework may be one option?
And then adding a pinctr-register / init+enable variant where the
pinctrl hogs can be aquired separately, not as part of pinctrl_enable?

Or maybe I'm thinking way too complex and a way easier solution
is around the corner ;-) .


Heiko
