[PATCH v2] pinctrl: renesas: r906g032: handle pin subgroups

[PATCH v2] pinctrl: renesas: r906g032: handle pin subgroups

[Ralph Siemsen]

Add simple recursion support to the .set_state method. This makes it
possible to use subgroups in the device tree, which in turn allows
setting multiple pins with different bias/drive-strength properties.

Fixes: e4aea57fa773 ("pinctrl: renesas: add R906G032 driver")

Changes in v2:
- split out of the series "Renesas RZ/N1 additional drivers"
  https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20260731-rzn1-2026-07-v1-1-af2ce80db9d8@linaro.org/
- fix typos in commit message
- use device_foreach_child() to iterate child nodes
- move recursion to top of function, ahead of the early return in the
  case of no direct pinmux entries, instead of removing early return.
- dev_err() in case of failure during recursion

Can there really be infinite nested subgroups , or are there always only 
groups with subgroups and that is where it ends ? Linux 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/renesas,rzn1-pinctrl.yaml 
makes it look like the later, so maybe the recursion is not necessary 
here, instead call device_foreach_child() { device_foreach_child() { .. 
} } to prevent the possibility of infinite recursion ?

Realistically there will only be groups with one level of subgroups.
Perhaps if there was a phandle it could go a few levels deeper.

Unbounded recursion is not really possible here unless:
- the device tree is infinitely deep, or
- there is a very serious bug in device_foreach_child()

As these both seem unlikely, I opted for the simple recursive call, but 
I am happy to change it if you feel it is better.
