If the pinmux naming and numbering is unique per SoC then sharing
namespace for them could be a source of confusion. If we need to keep
them around much longer, then doing that rename would be a good idea. But
we can do that separately from this change. So the include change is ok
for now.

My other comments about the code changes still stands though, so please
address those.
