Johan Hovold ed032c1bed driver core: fix automatic pinctrl management
Commit ab78029ecc ("drivers/pinctrl: grab default handles from device
core") added automatic pin-control management to driver core by looking
up and setting any default pinctrl state found in device tree while a
device is being probed.

This obviously runs into problems as soon as device-tree nodes are
reused for child devices which are later also probed as pins would
already have been claimed by the ancestor device.

For example if a USB host controller claims a pin, its root hub would
consequently fail to probe when its device-tree node is set to the node
of the controller:

    pinctrl-single 48002030.pinmux: pin PIN204 already requested by 48064800.ehci; cannot claim for usb1
    pinctrl-single 48002030.pinmux: pin-204 (usb1) status -22
    pinctrl-single 48002030.pinmux: could not request pin 204 (PIN204) from group usb_dbg_pins  on device pinctrl-single
    usb usb1: Error applying setting, reverse things back
    usb: probe of usb1 failed with error -22

Fix this by checking the new of_node_reused flag and skipping automatic
pinctrl configuration during probe if set.

Note that the flag is checked in driver core rather than in pinctrl
(e.g. in pinctrl_dt_to_map()) which would specifically have prevented
intentional use of a parent's pinctrl properties by a child device
(should such a need ever arise).

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
