I don't really like that you mix multiplexing and config in the
same node. I would prefer if the generic bindings say we have
muxing nodes and config nodes, and those are disparate.
Can't you just split this:
common-mux {
groups = "uart1_10_grp";
function = "uart1";
};
common-config {
groups = "uart1_10_grp";
slew-rate = <0>;
io-standard = <1>;
};
That way we can identify nodes as mux nodes (have "function")
or config nodes (have "groups" or "pins" but not "function") which
I think makes things easier to read.
Yours,
