I had been trying to learn a bit more about the pinctrl subsystem, and I
realized several typos and grammar issues while going through the documentation.
I have probably not caught all the possible issues, but this change is
addressing several places for improvement.

From the inception ot the pin config API there has been the
possibility to get a handle at a pin directly and configure
its electrical characteristics. For this reason we had:
int pin_config_get(const char *dev_name, const char *name,
unsigned long *config);
int pin_config_set(const char *dev_name, const char *name,
unsigned long config);
int pin_config_group_get(const char *dev_name,
const char *pin_group,
unsigned long *config);
int pin_config_group_set(const char *dev_name,
const char *pin_group,
unsigned long config);
After the introduction of the pin control states that will
control pins associated with devices, and its subsequent
introduction to the device core, as well as the
introduction of pin control hogs that can set up states on
boot and optionally also at sleep, this direct pin control
API is a thing of the past.
As could be expected, it has zero in-kernel users.
Let's delete this API and make our world simpler.

Recently as adoption of the pinctrl framework is reaching
niches where the pins are reconfigured during system sleep
and datasheets often talk about something called "GPIO mode",
some engineers become confused by this, thinking that since
it is named "GPIO (something something)" it must be modeled
in the kernel using <linux/gpio.h>.
To clarify things, let's put in this piece of documentation,
or just start off the discussion here.

This makes the device core auto-grab the pinctrl handle and set
the "default" (PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT) state for every device
that is present in the device model right before probe. This will
account for the lion's share of embedded silicon devcies.
A modification of the semantics for pinctrl_get() is also done:
previously if the pinctrl handle for a certain device was already
taken, the pinctrl core would return an error. Now, since the
core may have already default-grabbed the handle and set its
state to "default", if the handle was already taken, this will
be disregarded and the located, previously instanitated handle
will be returned to the caller.
This way all code in drivers explicitly requesting their pinctrl
handlers will still be functional, and drivers that want to
explicitly retrieve and switch their handles can still do that.
But if the desired functionality is just boilerplate of this
type in the probe() function:
struct pinctrl *p;
p = devm_pinctrl_get_select_default(&dev);
if (IS_ERR(p)) {
if (PTR_ERR(p) == -EPROBE_DEFER)
return -EPROBE_DEFER;
dev_warn(&dev, "no pinctrl handle\n");
}
The discussion began with the addition of such boilerplate
to the omap4 keypad driver:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=135091157719300&w=2
A previous approach using notifiers was discussed:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135263661110528&w=2
This failed because it could not handle deferred probes.
This patch alone does not solve the entire dilemma faced:
whether code should be distributed into the drivers or
if it should be centralized to e.g. a PM domain. But it
solves the immediate issue of the addition of boilerplate
to a lot of drivers that just want to grab the default
state. As mentioned, they can later explicitly retrieve
the handle and set different states, and this could as
well be done by e.g. PM domains as it is only related
to a certain struct device * pointer.
ChangeLog v4->v5 (Stephen):
- Simplified the devicecore grab code.
- Deleted a piece of documentation recommending that pins
be mapped to a device rather than hogged.
ChangeLog v3->v4 (Linus):
- Drop overzealous NULL checks.
- Move kref initialization to pinctrl_create().
- Seeking Tested-by from Stephen Warren so we do not disturb
the Tegra platform.
- Seeking ACK on this from Greg (and others who like it) so I
can merge it through the pinctrl subsystem.
ChangeLog v2->v3 (Linus):
- Abstain from using IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in the driver core,
Russell recently sent a patch to remove it. Handle the
NULL case explicitly even though it's a bogus case.
- Make sure we handle probe deferral correctly in the device
core file. devm_kfree() the container on error so we don't
waste memory for devices without pinctrl handles.
- Introduce reference counting into the pinctrl core using
<linux/kref.h> so that we don't release pinctrl handles
that have been obtained for two or more places.
ChangeLog v1->v2 (Linus):
- Only store a pointer in the device struct, and only allocate
this if it's really used by the device.

pinctrl subsystem needs gpio chip base to prepare set of gpio
pin ranges, which a given pinctrl driver can handle. This is
important to handle pinctrl gpio request calls in order to
program a given pin properly for gpio operation.
As gpio base is allocated dynamically during gpiochip
registration, presently there exists no clean way to pass this
information to the pinctrl subsystem.
After few discussions from [1], it was concluded that may be
gpio controller reporting the pin range it supports, is a
better way than pinctrl subsystem directly registering it.

Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>
This switches the way that pins are reserved for multiplexing:
We used to do this when the map was parsed, at the creation of
the settings inside the pinctrl handle, in pinmux_map_to_setting().
However this does not work for us, because we want to use the
same set of pins with different devices at different times: the
current code assumes that the pin groups in a pinmux state will
only be used with one single device, albeit different groups can
be active at different times. For example if a single I2C driver
block is used to drive two different busses located on two
pin groups A and B, then the pins for all possible states of a
function are reserved when fetching the pinctrl handle: the
I2C bus can choose either set A or set B by a mux state at
runtime, but all pins in both group A and B (the superset) are
effectively reserved for that I2C function and mapped to the
device. Another device can never get in and use the pins in
group A, even if the device/function is using group B at the
moment.
Instead: let use reserve the pins when the state is activated
and drop them when the state is disabled, i.e. when we move to
another state. This way different devices/functions can use the
same pins at different times.
We know that this is an odd way of doing things, but we really
need to switch e.g. an SD-card slot to become a tracing output
sink at runtime: we plug in a special "tracing card" then mux
the pins that used to be an SD slot around to the tracing
unit and push out tracing data there instead of SD-card
traffic.
As a side effect pinmux_free_setting() is unused but the stubs
are kept for future additions of code.

If drivers try to obtain pinctrl handles for a pin controller that
has not yet registered to the subsystem, we need to be able to
back out and retry with deferred probing. So let's return
-EPROBE_DEFER whenever this location fails. Also downgrade the
errors to info, maybe we will even set them to debug once the
deferred probing is commonplace.

Most of the SoC drivers implement list_groups() and list_functions()
routines for pinctrl and pinmux. These routines continue returning
zero until the selector argument is greater than total count of
available groups or functions.
This patch replaces these list_*() routines with get_*_count()
routines, which returns the number of available selection for SoC
driver. pinctrl layer will use this value to check the range it can
choose.
This patch fixes all user drivers for this change. There are other
routines in user drivers, which have checks to check validity of
selector passed to them. It is also no more required and hence
removed.
Documentation updated as well.

The API model is changed from:
p = pinctrl_get(dev, "state1");
pinctrl_enable(p);
...
pinctrl_disable(p);
pinctrl_put(p);
p = pinctrl_get(dev, "state2");
pinctrl_enable(p);
...
pinctrl_disable(p);
pinctrl_put(p);
to this:
p = pinctrl_get(dev);
s1 = pinctrl_lookup_state(p, "state1");
s2 = pinctrl_lookup_state(p, "state2");
pinctrl_select_state(p, s1);
...
pinctrl_select_state(p, s2);
...
pinctrl_put(p);
This allows devices to directly transition between states without
disabling the pin controller programming and put()/get()ing the
configuration data each time. This model will also better suit pinconf
programming, which doesn't have a concept of "disable".
The special-case hogging feature of pin controllers is re-written to use
the regular APIs instead of special-case code. Hence, the pinmux-hogs
debugfs file is removed; see the top-level pinctrl-handles files for

pinctrl_register_mappings() already requires that every mapping table
entry have a non-NULL name field.
Logically, this makes sense too; drivers should always request a specific
named state so they know what they're getting. Relying on getting the
first mentioned state in the mapping table is error-prone, and a nasty
special case to implement, given that a given the mapping table may define
multiple states for a device.
Remove a small part of the documentation that talked about optionally
requesting a specific state; it's mandatory now.

This provides a single centralized name for the default state.
Update PIN_MAP_* macros to use this state name, instead of requiring the
user to pass a state name in.
With this change, hog entries in the mapping table are defined as those
with state name PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, i.e. all entries have the same
name. This interacts badly with the nested iteration over mapping table
entries in pinctrl_hog_maps() and pinctrl_hog_map() which would now
attempt to claim each hog mapping table entry multiple times. Replacing
the custom hog code with a simple pinctrl_get()/pinctrl_enable().
Update documentation and mapping tables to use this.
