If some boards don't use i2cN, they do not enable the node in their
board dts. That is sufficient to not configure the pinmux as it will
only be set if a driver is loaded for that node.

If there is only one or two different pinmux settings for a specific
function _always_ move the pinmux setting into SoC dtsi. If there is
a well known default out of two or more possible settings, we may also
have that pinmux as a default in the i2c node and only overwrite it
when we have a board that uses a different setting.

So, for i2c: Move all pinctrl/pinctrl-names properties to the SoC
dtsi.
