I don't see any problem with the above properties, but I would like to
see an example. How verbose will a pinctrl node using the generic
properties tend to be?

Hmmm. We really need a better method of parsing multiple properties.
I've been toying around with a few ideas, but haven't been able to draft
something I'm happy with yeat.

Regardless, the code in this patch looks fine to me.
