Christina Quast commented in f1ff9be7652b ("ARM: dts: am33xx: Added 
AM33XX_PADCONF macro") that AM33XX_IOPAD() was left in place to avoid
breaking boards not in mainline.

If we follow that logic, then I think that fixing AM33XX_IOPAD() for
#pinctrl-cells = <2> would be the correct solution.

Would this be acceptable?

#define AM33XX_IOPAD(pa, val)          OMAP_IOPAD_OFFSET((pa), 0x0800) (val) (0)
