Currently only the drivers/pinctrl/devicetree.c code allows registering pinctrl-mappings which may later be unregistered, all other mappings are assumed to be permanent. Non-dt platforms may also want to register pinctrl mappings from code which is build as a module, which requires being able to unregister the mapping when the module is unloaded to avoid dangling pointers. To allow unregistering the mappings the devicetree code uses 2 internal functions: pinctrl_register_map and pinctrl_unregister_map. pinctrl_register_map allows the devicetree code to tell the core to not memdup the mappings as it retains ownership of them and pinctrl_unregister_map does the unregistering, note this only works when the mappings where not memdupped. The only code relying on the memdup/shallow-copy done by pinctrl_register_mappings is arch/arm/mach-u300/core.c this commit replaces the __initdata with const, so that the shallow-copy is no longer necessary. After that we can get rid of the internal pinctrl_unregister_map function and just use pinctrl_register_mappings directly everywhere. This commit also renames pinctrl_unregister_map to pinctrl_unregister_mappings so that its naming matches its pinctrl_register_mappings counter-part and exports it. Together these 2 changes will allow non-dt platform code to register pinctrl-mappings from modules without breaking things on module unload (as they can now unregister the mapping on unload).
