Overall this looks nice, some minor things....

Just use u8

Some of this would need some kerneldoc, don't you think?

Can you use pinctrl_utils_dt_free_map()
from
#include "pinctrl-utils.h"
for this?

Hmmm rather terse debug info don't you think... ;)

There are now standard bindings for "function" and "group" so please
if you can, just use "function" and "group".

See:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt
"Generic pin multiplexing node content"

I also wanted to provide a generic parsing function for it actually,
since so many drivers look alike.

Can you use pinctrl_utils_reserve_map() here?

We don't have an "enable" callback anymore.
Rename this rt2880_pmx_set_mux().

.set_mux rather than .enable

And make sure you test this on say v3.18-rc2.

Can you explain what this code is doing a bit more.

Are you avoiding to use gpio ranges by instead providing that
"gpio" function on each and every pin?

What is this "loading" that is happening here?

NO GPIO BASE in the device tree.

We have NACKed this so many times that I don't know it anymore.

The gpiobase is a linux-internal thing and not OS neutral at all.

So it has nothing to do in the device tree.

(If it was allowed it would atleast be linux,gpio-base)

Several other ways to handle this is available, the best being...
(see below)

...to NOT do this but instead use
gpiochip_add_pin_range() or gpiochip_add_pingroup_range()
from the gpiochip side.

The gpiochip has the ability to add ranges completely dynamically
as it can get a relative offset from the pin control subsystem.
It doesn't work the other way around unfortunately.

So I'd suggest you look at ways to modify your GPIO driver
to do this.

Do you really need it this early?
