Linus,
This one make PINCTRL_MT8173 option user selectable and is based on
mtk-staging in your tree. If you think this is OK, please applied or
squash this into previous change. Thanks.

The patch looks good in principle, just two small comments

which is the magic that git-am looks for.

Will do next time.

You have slightly different logic here: PINCTRL_MT8135 will
always be enabled when COMPILE_TEST is on, while PINCTRL_MT8173
is enabled by default in this case, but can be turned off.
Neither of them is what you really want, which would be

config PINCTRL_MT8135
	bool "Mediatek MT8135 pin control"
	depends on MACH_MT8135 || COMPILE_TEST
	default MACH_MT8135
	select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON

config PINCTRL_MT8135
	bool "Mediatek MT8173 pin control"
	depends on MACH_MT8173 || COMPILE_TEST
	default MACH_MT8173
	select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON

This way, the options are only enabled by default if MACH_MT8135
or MACH_MT8173 are enabled, but you are free to enable or disable
them when COMPILE_TEST is set. Alternatively, you can do

config PINCTRL_MT8135
	bool "Mediatek MT8135 pin control" if COMPILE_TEST && !MACH_MT8135
	default MACH_MT8135
	select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON

config PINCTRL_MT8135
	bool "Mediatek MT8173 pin control" if COMPILE_TEST && !MACH_MT8173
	default MACH_MT8173
	select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON

which will let you turn on the options if COMPILE_TEST is set, but not
let you turn them off when the drivers are required.

Yes, this is preferred. Because we don't have MACH_MT8173, so it is
possible a ARM64 + ARCH_MEDIATEK system doesn't need PINCTRL_MT8173, so
we still need 2 slightly different logic. Is it OK if I do this?
Also add some comments so future SoCs can follow the correct template.

# For ARMv7 SoCs
config PINCTRL_MT8135
        bool "Mediatek MT8135 pin control" if COMPILE_TEST && !MACH_MT8135
        default MACH_MT8135
        select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON

# For ARMv8 SoCs
config PINCTRL_MT8173
        bool "Mediatek MT8173 pin control"
        depends on ARM64 || COMPILE_TEST
        default ARM64
        select PINCTRL_MTK_COMMON
