I think this will save a *lot* of identical code in all the
drivers, that will just have to call
pinctrl_select_pm_sleep(), pinctrl_select_pm_default()
pinctrl_select_pm_idle() instead of all the complex code.

This is what I planned to do but never got around to.

What about taking it one tiny step further, and having it done by the PM
core itself?

Seems like something that should just be done as part of runtime PM
transitions and the suspend/resume process.

Indeed, I remember suggesting this as part of the original discussion of
having the code do the default state setting.  It seems like there ought
to be very few devices which actively manage pinctrl themselves,
otherwise we'll get a lot of boilerplate.
