Agreed. I actually already changed it back...

Sure. You are right.

At the moment it is just a regmap. That means one could hammer the values directly
into /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/pinmux@...

I first opted for the pinctrl-single driver, but the MIO has three (?) extra registers
which do not map very well to the "one pin one register" setup of that driver.

Where I'm stuck at the moment is: if I map the whole register space to the
parent node, how do I get its mapped address in the clkc?
AFAIK the phandle is pretty useless in this early stage. In the pinmuxing
case I should be able to find the registered driver for the lock via the
phandle.
If I remember correctly, there where some patches floating around for exactly
this problem. At the moment, I think the global pointer has to stay, until
those patches are mainline, if ever. Or I'm missing some obvious way of how
to get the base address of the slcr, that I can pass to the clock framework.
It doesn't need to be syscon, as the clock framework can't use it anyway.

Regards,
Steffen
