From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com>
On Polarfire SoC, the Bank 2 and Bank 4 IOs connected to the
Multiprocessor Subsystem (MSS) are controlled by IOMUX_CRs 1 through 6,
which determine what function in routed to them, and
MSSIO_BANK#_IO_CFG_CRs, which determine the configuration of each pin.
Document it, including several custom configuration options that stem
from MSS Configurator options (the MSS Configurator is part of the FPGA
tooling for this device). "ibufmd" unfortunately is not a 1:1 mapping
with an MSS Configurator option, unlike clamp-diode or lockdown, and I
do not know the effect of any bits in the field. I have no been able to
find an explanation for these bits in documentation.

pins can be int or string. You need to define which one here.

"power-source" serves this purpose. It's not well defined as sometimes
it's a register value and sometimes a voltage (in various units).

I *think* it was because the selection was not per pin and I wanted to make it clear - but I should probably just use that property and add the description from above. > > > + > > + microchip,clamp-diode: > > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag > > + description: > > + Reflects the "Clamp Diode" setting in the MSS Configurator for > > + this pin.
