If I recall right, the problem there was that we have one register, which has bits for two separate devices, and the bits are mixed up. i.e. not 16 upper bits for one, 16 lower for the other, but 5 bits for one device, the next 5 bits for the other, then again few bits for the first, etc. pinctrl-single,bits didn't like it that. >>>> Oh, also, if I do that, I need to know both the SoC version and the DSS >>>> version in the driver. >>> >>> Don't you get all you need in the compatible string?

Yep, I'll have to come up with something. Tomi
