True, OF_GPIO I could skip here.

I don't think OF is the problem here, because the error is in missing
GPIOLIB. The platform selects Samsung pinctrl but it does not select
GPIOLIB. Possible fixes are:
1. Do not select Samsung pinctrl from the platform (but have some
default), so on compile test build it might not work.
2. Select GPIOLIB from the platform (ARMv7 Exynos does it).
3. Select GPIOLIB from here - this is current proposal.


Best regards,
Krzysztof
