Don't use vendor prefix. Use the new standard notation, just "pins".
See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt

No. Don't hardcode register offsets into the DTS files. This is
something the driver should know from the compatible string or
instance number, not by explicit reference.

NACK. Make your Kconfig select GENERIC_PINCONF and use the
already existing generic pin configuration specifiers from the standard
bindings. Like bias-pull-up; etc.
This kind of custom pin config is a thing of the past.

You might have to use separate parameters for muxing and config
in your description.
