This is true. It is then also reflected in the device model.
And in debugfs, which is very helpful when debugging. If I
cat
/sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/pinctrl-db8500/pins

I can see a list of all pins on this ASIC and what device
is using it. It is all due to the fact that each driver use
[devm_]pinctrl_get(&dev) ad the struct device * pointer
is used with dev_name() to print the corresponding
device name.

When using hogs it just says the name of the pin
controller and the pins aren't really connected to their
real consumers :-P

Example:

Pinmux settings per pin
Format: pin (name): mux_owner gpio_owner hog?
pin 0 (GPIO0_AJ5): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 1 (GPIO1_AJ3): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 2 (GPIO2_AH4): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 3 (GPIO3_AH3): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 4 (GPIO4_AH6): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 5 (GPIO5_AG6): (MUX UNCLAIMED) DB8500:5
pin 6 (GPIO6_AF6): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function ipgpio
group ipgpio0_c_1
pin 7 (GPIO7_AG5): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function ipgpio
group ipgpio1_c_1
pin 8 (GPIO8_AD5): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 9 (GPIO9_AE4): (MUX UNCLAIMED) (GPIO UNCLAIMED)
pin 10 (GPIO10_AF5): nmk-i2c.2 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function i2c2 group i2c2_b_2
pin 11 (GPIO11_AG4): nmk-i2c.2 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function i2c2 group i2c2_b_2
pin 12 (GPIO12_AC4): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function msp0
group msp0txrx_a_1
pin 13 (GPIO13_AF3): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function msp0
group msp0tfstck_a_1
pin 14 (GPIO14_AE3): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function msp0
group msp0tfstck_a_1
pin 15 (GPIO15_AC3): pinctrl-db8500 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function msp0
group msp0txrx_a_1
pin 16 (GPIO16_AD3): nmk-i2c.1 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function i2c1 group i2c1_b_2
pin 17 (GPIO17_AD4): nmk-i2c.1 (GPIO UNCLAIMED) function i2c1 group i2c1_b_2

As you can see pins 6,7,12-15 are using hogs. Sure I can see
the name of the function but that is just a string albeit
helpful.

Pins 10,11,16,17 are requested directly from the i2c driver
and shows up connected to its device.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
