I think here the expectation would be that .dtsi should populate the complete
pin-mux for SOC and board files should just be able to re-use it (add it as a phandler).
Also as per the above description .dtsi file will end up contain majorly pin-mux info
rather than the hardware data. Is it a good idea?

On looking da850.dtsi file NAND pins were defined for 8-bit part. 
In case of NAND flash, the device might be sitting under different chip-select or may
have 16 bit part on  different boards. So pin-mux defined in soc.dtsi has to be split
separately for CS, DATA, Address.

So it is always challenging to create pin-mux info in .dtsi file. So more useful/meaningful
way is to actually create pin-mux in board file rather in .dtsi file.

I have gone through .dtsi. But it didn't describe the complete pin-mux like I2C1, MMC1, etc.
So the expectation here is only to add ECAP2 pin-mux. Is it correct?
