What kind of compatible string is that "generic-pinconf"?

There is no driver that can instantiate against this string but I'm not
100% sure about such things. Is there some other driver doing this?

Else I think it'd just be removed.

Nice.

input-deglitch seems like a proposed generic binding but I haven't seen
these yet?

(It might be in my violently exploding INBOX though sorry in that case.)

This would need adding to
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt
Plus changes to pinctrl core for handling.

BTW: this is really moving in the right direction!
