We have the ops for configuring the pin config as

        int (*pin_config_group_set) (struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev,
                                     unsigned selector,
                                     unsigned long *configs,
                                     unsigned num_configs);


The config is 32 bit, upper 16 for config argument and  and lower 16 for 
the config param.

So we can not accommodate 3300000uV until we change it to mV i.e. 3300mV.

So on interface, we can read uV from DT but when making config, we can 
translate it to mV before passing to pin_config_group_set.
