RFC: Pin (mis)configuration

Hi,

recently we stumbled about some pins ([1], [2]) on the Raspberry Pi 3 which are controlled by the firmware and shouldn't be changed by Linux. So based on the dt-blob.dts [3] i created a reference table for those affected pins in order to avoid such issues in the future [4].

It would be nice if someone could review this table.

After that i suggest the following steps:

1. Publish this reference on the firmware wiki at Github
2. Add comments in order to mark the relevant pins in the DTS files as reserved

Regards
Stefan
