I was just thinking:

It would be *NICE* if the sunxi driver would start to support the new standard
bindings for this stuff, see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt

So you could just use pins, function and the drive-strength and
bias-disable in this case.

Since I know the AllWinner support is a community project I have much higher
tolerance with this legacy binding sticking around for the new generation of
SoCs but still, if you find time.

I mean it like supporting these in *addition* to the custom ones, so there can
be a smooth phase-over.

Check for example Laurent's commit for SH-PFC:
commit 16ccaf5bb5a52372bfebd3dfbb79dd810ad49c09
"pinctrl: sh-pfc: Accept standard function, pins and groups properties"
It's awesome, and since, they have improved the looks of Renesas
DTS files a lot.

It could look a bit like this nice thing from
lpc4337-ciaa.dts:

&pinctrl {
        enet_rmii_pins: enet-rmii-pins {
                enet_rmii_rxd_cfg {
                        pins = "p1_15", "p0_0";
                        function = "enet";
                        slew-rate = <1>;
                        bias-disable;
                        input-enable;
                        input-schmitt-disable;
                };

                enet_rmii_txd_cfg {
                        pins = "p1_18", "p1_20";
                        function = "enet";
                        slew-rate = <1>;
                        bias-disable;
                        input-enable;
                        input-schmitt-disable;
                };
(etc)
