Usually we use aliases to mark the order of things. e.g.:
aliases {
gpio0 = &gpio0;
gpio1 = &gpio1;
gpio2 = &gpio2;
ethernet0 = ð0;
ethernet1 = ð1;
};

We actually haven't specified that function+pins is a valid pattern,
a lot of drivers just started doing that :(
function+groups is documented for muxing.
group + config opts is documented for config.
Please consider patching the generic bindings to reflect this
mux use of pins... We need to discuss it.
