That is done from a consumer point of view.
Consumers only care about pinctrl * handles
and pinctrl_state * switches.

Consumers should not use that interface, i.e.:
int pin_config_get(const char *dev_name, const char *name,
unsigned long *config);
int pin_config_set(const char *dev_name, const char *name,
unsigned long config)
This needs to be deleted from <linux/pinctrl/consumer.h>
I'll see if I can get rid of it pronto to avoid any more confusion
and sorry for leaving that in place for too long.
The proper way to use it is to use the states.
