Heh, I just thought I would clean this up a bit. And now we have
a nice pinctrl driver for s3c24xx.

As a side note, I've tried it on s3c2440, together with your patch
series adding dt support for s3c2416. Need to resolve a couple more
issues and hopefully will have a booting system soon.

Thanks.

I abstained with posting the second patch, which removes Exynos4/5 OF
support from the gpio-samsung driver. Now when those platforms have
proper pinctrl driver it is not possible to support simultaneously
the old (pre-eliminary) DT bindings and the standard GPIO bindings
implemented by the pinctrl driver. Anyway I have it prepared so I'll
post it, at least it might be a starting point for a discussion.


Thanks,
Sylwester
