Another question, this kind of looks like a pin mux controller. Is
that not a fit for this? If not, why?

A 'should be enough for a while' value is fine. The driver doesn't
have to have a max. I'd expect the binding to be updated for new SoCs
anyways.

'brcmstb' is not a vendor. But brcm,in-functions is fine.
