Some of these were fixed in earlier documentation patches in
my tree, so I took out the pieces that were missing and squashed
into that patch. The result now looks like this:

    pinctrl: documentation update

    Update the docs removing an obsolete __refdata tag and document
    the mysterious return value of pin_free(). And fixes up some various
    confusions in the pinctrl documentation.
