Could bool/tristate options in the Kconfig be the key point?

Based on current design I prefer to build the s32g2 pinctrl driver as built-in
rather than a loadable module. IIUC, when the driver is not built as module
then the initcall ordering should still matter.

Feel free to correct me if anything wrong.

Chester
