Oops. I accidentally blew this away when I dropped the change the change
to replace of_find_node_by_phandle() with of_parse_phandle(). I guess
I'll post V4:-(

Sorry, I'm not sure what the issue is here? We need some struct to
remember all the mapping table chunks that are parsed from DT so that
when pinctrl_put() is executed, they can be freed.
