As explained I already have drivers that need to do this. OK they
are out-of-tree, but they do exist.

For U5500 we have a SIM card driver which sets pull down resistance
and load capacitance in response to information retrieved from the
card at runtime. This is not static or internal to pinctrl at all. How should
I solve this if pin configuration is not exposed?
