Thanks for the review.
Here it's only one group for fec function.
If i understood right, for current pinmux desgin, pins are arranged in
groups per specifc functions.
For the case FEC_MDC could be routed to KEY_ROW2, we need define a KEY group
for key function.
Currently, i only added one group for one function with the reference
of MX53 LOCO pinmux defines.
And it's a big work which is in the TODO list that for me to manually
add all possible functions and pin groups.
So I send out the patch first to see if any design issue for the FSL
iomux specialist.

Yes, acked on this.
I may take this name option.

How mixture?
Can you describe more or give an example?

Yes, i noted this.
As i said above, pins seem to be arranged in groups per functions not
per pins itself.
So our to do is define all possible pin function and group for board to use.
But obviously, it's a big work. Especially for your UART2 work, it
might be a headache since many possible combination of pins.
I still not find the good idea.
My current plan is to define all (might be frequently) used functoin
and groups for the exist upstreamed board like 53 Loco and etc, is
that ok?
