[RFC PATCH v2] ARM: dts: stm32: change pinctrl bindings definition

From: Alexandre Torgue

Initially each pin was declared in "include/dt-bindings/stm32f429-pinfunc.h"
and each definition contained SOC names (ex: STM32F429_PA9_FUNC_USART1_TX).
Since this approach was approved, the number of supported MCU has
increased (STM32F429/STM32F469/STM32f746/STM32H743). To avoid to add a new
file in "include/dt-bindings" each time a new STM32 SOC arrives I propose
a new approach which consist to use a macro to define pin muxing in device
tree. All STM32 DT will use the common macro to define pinmux. Furthermore, it
will make maintenance and integration of new SOC easier.

To check that patch generate same dtb than befrore I used dtc binary to (re)generate dts files
(before and after apply the series).
Example on stm32f469-disco:

./scripts/dtc/dtc -I dtb -O dts -o stm32f469-disco-after.dts
stm32f469-disco-after.dtb

./scripts/dtc/dtc -I dtb -O dts -o stm32f469-disco-before.dts
stm32f469-disco-before.dtb

Then diff -u stm32f469-disco-before.dts stm32f469-disco-after.dts


Changes since v1:
-According to Vikas Manocha review, use generic macro to define port.

Alex
