Thanks for reporting this issue.
The original code intended to save 3 common lines for both SCU and MMIO pads,
but it did change the code logic a bit which resulted in a regression specificly
for NO_PAD_CTL cases used on a few legacy boards. (NO_PAD_CTL is deprecated
for new boards dts).

I agree with Leonard that this fixes is not so good.
A simpler and proper fix could be:

As you both had a patch, i'm not sure who i'm going to expect for a updated one,
so I would send it my own with both of your tags.

Thanks for the effort.
