Yeah, this is the series I have reviewed couple of times internally, but then
it lost on cracks and somebody decided to submit (forgetting to include me) to
the mailing list.

In any case some points about this:
- this is ARM based platform
- this pin control doesn't have anything in common with x86 LPSS pin control
- Lighting Mountain is a former MIPS-based SoC with x86 core

I.o.w. they all are different. I doubt the unification with equilibrium may
have happened.

But I think it's fine to continue the review publicly. We will see the
potential issues, maintainer's desires, etc earlier.

Btw, thanks for your preliminary review!
