Looking at the code (I will ask to check on real hw) seems that
conf_reg is -1 when there is no conf_reg.
the pinmux core set_state just calls the pin_config_set and one pin
can have the mux supported and the config
not supported. And imx25 has several of them that are only muxed.
Seems that this NO_CTL_PAD is something
that is nxp

clk_osc_audio: clk-osc-audio {
compatible = "gpio-gate-clock";
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_clk26mhz_osc>;
clocks = <&clksis>;
#clock-cells = <0>;
enable-gpios = <&gpio3 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
};

this is my use case
pinctrl_clk26mhz_osc: clk26mhzosc {
fsl,pins = <
MX25_PAD_EXT_ARMCLK__GPIO_3_15 0x80000000
>;
};
