You're lucky because a few ARM SoC:s wanted a stable tag to
use for pinctrl merges.

Ref:
git://git.linaro.org/people/triad/linux-pinctrl.git

The tag pinctrl-mergebase-20120418
contains the devm and other changes, Stephen is already using
that for Tegra stuff and it's solid as a rock. Newer patches are
put on top of this and since pinctrl has no deps in any directions
it will be requested for pull as soon as the merge window opens.

Yours,
