🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the bcmstbpinctrl driver is the one that reads pin control data from the device tree and uses it to pick, like, one of multiple possible roles available for pins on Broadcom Set-top Box SoCs 👑

and yes bestie, this includes the Broadcom BCM2712 SoC — the one that's literally in the Raspberry Pi 5 🔥 iconic behavior fr fr

one thing though: it does not provide direct device driver entry points. nope. instead it makes its functions available to other drivers. it's giving supportive bestie energy, not main character energy 💅
