Oh, so there is a way!

Thank you.


So, for clarity:

	/* Ethernet */
	ether_pins: ether {
		/* Ethernet on Ports 1,2,3,5 */
		mux {
			pins = <PIN(1, 14) | FUNC_4)>, /* P1_14 = ET_COL */
				<PIN(5, 9) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P5_9 = ET_MDC */
				<PIN(3, 4) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P3_4 = ET_RXCLK */
				<PIN(3, 5) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P3_5 = ET_RXER */
				<PIN(3, 6) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P3_6 = ET_RXDV */
				<PIN(2, 0) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_0 = ET_TXCLK */
				<PIN(2, 1) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_1 = ET_TXER */
				<PIN(2, 2) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_2 = ET_TXEN */
				<PIN(2, 3) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_3 = ET_CRS */
				<PIN(2, 4) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_4 = ET_TXD0 */
				<PIN(2, 5) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_5 = ET_TXD1 */
				<PIN(2, 6) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_6 = ET_TXD2 */
				<PIN(2, 7) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_7 = ET_TXD3 */
				<PIN(2, 8) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_8 = ET_RXD0 */
				<PIN(2, 9) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P2_9 = ET_RXD1 */
				<PIN(2, 10) | FUNC_2)>, /* P2_10 = ET_RXD2 */
				<PIN(2, 11) | FUNC_2)>; /* P2_11 = ET_RXD3 */
		};
		pins_bidir {
			pins = <PIN(3, 3) | FUNC_2)>,	/* P3_3 = ET_MDIO */
			bidirectional;
		};
	};
