What I wanted to say - current setting should cause warnings. Therefore
choose:
1. For ACPI && !OF this should be still without of_match_ptr, to allow
ACPI matching by OF (PRP0001).
2. For !OF with of_match_ptr() (weird setup... how to match then?) the
ac5_pinctrl_of_match should be marked as maybe unused.


Best regards,
Krzysztof
