dt-bindings: document devicetree bindings for mux-controllers and gpio-mux

Allow specifying that a single multiplexer controller can be used to
control several parallel multiplexers, thus enabling sharing of the
multiplexer controller by different consumers.

Add a binding for a first mux controller in the form of a GPIO based mux
controller.

+GPIO-based multiplexer controller bindings
+
+Define what GPIO pins are used to control a multiplexer. Or several
+multiplexers, if the same pins control more than one multiplexer.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "gpio-mux"
+- mux-gpios : list of gpios used to control the multiplexer, least
+	      significant bit first.
+- #mux-control-cells : <0>
+* Standard mux-controller bindings as decribed in mux-controller.txt
+
+Optional properties:
+- idle-state : if present, the state the mux will have when idle. The
+	       special state MUX_IDLE_AS_IS is the default.
+
+The multiplexer state is defined as the number represented by the
+multiplexer GPIO pins, where the first pin is the least significant
+bit. An active pin is a binary 1, an inactive pin is a binary 0.
+
+Example:
+
+	mux: mux-controller {
+		compatible = "gpio-mux";
+		#mux-control-cells = <0>;
+
+		mux-gpios = <&pioA 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
+			    <&pioA 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+	};
+
+	adc-mux {
+		compatible = "io-channel-mux";
+		io-channels = <&adc 0>;
+		io-channel-names = "parent";
+
+		mux-controls = <&mux>;
+
+		channels = "sync-1", "in", "out", "sync-2";
+	};
+
+	i2c-mux {
+		compatible = "i2c-mux";
+		i2c-parent = <&i2c1>;
+
+		mux-controls = <&mux>;
+
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+
+		i2c@0 {
+			reg = <0>;
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+
+			ssd1307: oled@3c {
+				/* ... */
+			};
+		};
+
+		i2c@3 {
+			reg = <3>;
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+
+			pca9555: pca9555@20 {
+				/* ... */
+			};
+		};
+	};
