It's exactly what we discussed and wanted.
Thank for the great and hard work.

I remember you said you will also change the PIN_MAP sequence that
place the device name at first.
Will see your further patch.

Very glad to see this simply one. :-)

I guess if we really decide to use a fixed state name for hog functions,
we'd better not let users to write the state name, at least provide a macro.

I remember you had a patch changing this macro a bit.
So here may also need change.

I still can not understand what's the purpose of p->usecount?
For allowing multi times calling of pinctrl_get for on the same device?

s/ERR_PTR(ret)/ret ?
