Well, it's a good question.
If user wants to set a different pad configuration for one pin in a exist group,
he may need to create a new group node to hold that pin settings.
This is the limitation since we can not enumerate all available pin
configurations.

I think what we can do may be:
For those easy changed pins, user could define the pin configuration node in
board dts file where devices can use one more phandle to reference it to do
minor fixup. Then we do not need to frequently change the SoC dtsi file.

For not easy changed pins, we can just add the new group in soc dtsi file
for people to use.
