NAK.
This is not the right solution for this driver.
It uses pinctrl in a very simplistic way, just grabbing the
default handler.
After commit
ab78029ecc347debbd737f06688d788bd9d60c1d:
"drivers/pinctrl: grab default handles from device core"
The right solution is to simply revert commit
2693ac69880a33d4d9df6f128415b65e745f00ba
"i2c: s3c2410: Add support for pinctrl"
Tomasz are you OK with this, or will you add more
fine-grained pinctrl (like runtime PM etc) to this driver?
Yours,
Linus Walleij
