Since the driver has been moved to pinctrl and now supports it, move the
documentation into pinctrl folder. In the same time, add documentation
for pinctrl properties such has snps,has-pinctrl and description of pin
alternate functions.

I'm wondering why we can't always assume pin control?

I guess this should be a part of patch 2 when you move driver w/o
changes to a new folder.

This hardware IP is configured when instantiated to include support for
muxing. If configured without support, the registers will exists but won't
configure anything.
I guess that it's not really a problem but it will lead to unusable
pin muxing.

Agreed. I will do that,

Thanks

Can't you determine this by the presence of child nodes?

Hi Rob, 

Indeed, I could do that if you think that's a better option. Andy however suggested to always register a pinctrl controller.
Both options suits me. Let me know what option you want me to implement.

Thanks,

Clément
