We have a standard binding in pin control for "slew-rate".

It doesn't have a unit today though.

This is pretty idiomatic and just encodes the configuration fields from the
hardware into the device tree.

The normal slew rate unit is Volts per microsecond.

I get the feeling that we could define that simply, and then calculate
the slew rate clock and step using that to find the best match for
a certain slew rate.
