There's a little bit of a init order issue here to add checking for
the function names during registration. That's because we don't allocate
pctldev until after pinmux_check_ops() in pinctrl_register. This means
we can't currently call ops->list_functions until unless we change the
init order.

To fix this we need to allocate pctldev earlier, and then change the
*_check_ops functions to use pctldev, see below.

Tony

Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: Add checks for empty function names

This is needed as otherwise we can get the following when dealing
with buggy data in a pinmux driver for pinmux_search_function:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
...
PC is at strcmp+0xc/0x34
LR is at pinmux_get+0x350/0x8f4
...

As we need pctldev initialized to call ops->list_functions, let's
initialize it before check_ops calls and pass the pctldev to the
check_ops functions. Do this for both pinmux and pinconf check_ops
functions.
