Thanks Arnd for this.

I have applied it in my local branch with minor fixes. I will add this
to my pull branch: spear-dt, once i get Acks by linus for pinctrl stuff.

This branch will contain following:
- SPEAr3xx DT patches
- SPEAr Pinctrl Patches (with Acks from Linus)
- Your rework patch.

Will send you pull request again, as soon i as get feedback on pinctrl stuff.
