Device Tree creation using PinMux

memaher,

The pinmux tool generates a device tree include file that only sets the pin multiplexing for the pins.  This file can be included in the device tree source file for the board. You just have to fill out the incomplete structures in the source include file that the pinmux tool generated and make sure that all the correct pins are being grouped appropriately to be referenced in the peripheral node.

In the device tree for the OSD3358-SM-RED, this pinmux setting is done as part of the board device tree source file. Note that the device tree file de-references the am33xx_pinmux node here: https://github.com/octavosystems/OSD335x-Device-Tree/blob/master/OSD3358-SM-RED/osd3358-bsm-refdesign.dts#L165 and sets up the hardware pin multiplexing similar to the output of the pinmux tool.

Using the source include or making the hardware pin multiplexing part of the source file for the board are both valid ways to go about getting a device tree together. If you are starting with the osd3358-bsm-refdesign.dts and want to  use the source include file generated by the pinmux tool, you can include the file in your device tree source file, delete the reference to am33xx_pinmux node in the osd3358-bsm-refdesing.dts and make sure the appropriate pinmux nodes(from the source include file generated by pinmux tool) are referenced in the peripheral initialization nodes.
