ok, so I think it's better to force PINCTRL_AT91 :
diff --git a/arch/arm/Kconfig b/arch/arm/Kconfig
index e91c7cd..178a619 100644
--- a/arch/arm/Kconfig
+++ b/arch/arm/Kconfig
@@ -352,6 +352,7 @@ config ARCH_AT91
 	select CLKDEV_LOOKUP
 	select IRQ_DOMAIN
 	select NEED_MACH_IO_H if PCCARD
+	select PINCTRL
+	select PINCTRL_AT91
 	help
 	  This enables support for systems based on Atmel
 	  AT91RM9200 and AT91SAM9* processors.
This way, older configurations will not break by selecting by default
only PINCTRL and not PINCTRL_AT91.

I used the one provided with your patch:
git checkout linux-at91/j/pinctrl
ARCH=arm make clean
ARCH=arm make at91_dt_defconfig
ARCH=arm make -k -j8 zImage
./scripts/dtc/dtc -I dts -O dtb arch/arm/boot/dts/at91sam9g35ek.dts -o
at91sam9g35ek.dtb
cat arch/arm/boot/zImage at91sam9g35ek.dtb > zImage.dtb
./scripts/mkuboot.sh -A arm -O linux -C none  -T kernel -a 0x20008000
-e 0x20008000 -n 'Linux-3.6-rc1+pinctrl' -d zImage.dtb uImage.bin

and I've got nothing from the kernel:
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

As the pinmux is still already done by the bootloader, I tried to
suppress the lines:
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_dbgu>;
in the DTS, but it's the same.

But the config is ok with 3.6-rc1:
git checkout v3.6-rc1
ARCH=arm make clean
ARCH=arm make -k -j8 zImage
cat arch/arm/boot/zImage at91sam9g35ek.dtb > zImage.dtb # it's the DTB
build previously
./scripts/mkuboot.sh -A arm -O linux -C none  -T kernel -a 0x20008000
-e 0x20008000 -n 'Linux-3.6-rc1' -d zImage.dtb uImage.bin
