[PATCH] pinctrl: update document for pinconf_generic_parse_dt_config

[Yingjoe Chen]

The returned configs from pinconf_generic_parse_dt_config() is
duplicated from original. Make it clear it must be freed when no
longer necessary.

It seems memleak in pinctrl-mtk-common.c[1] is not alone. After a quick
glance I notice similar issues in drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-at91-pio4.c and
drivers/pinctrl/nomadik/pinctrl-abx500.c.

I think it make sense to update document to make it clear it should be freed.
