This went in too quickly, my bad!

The kbuild test robot reports an error when building i386 with
allmodconfig, so I will drop this patch from my next branch.
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/kbuild-all/2015-August/011806.html

Moreover I have some more comment around the patch, see below.

pinctrl_bind_bins() uses devm_* functions and that's not going to work
as the used device here isn't being probed/released.

Instead you need to use the *non* devm_pinctrl_*() APIs, such as
pinctrl_get|put() etc.
