The Armada 370 and XP SoCs have configurable muxing for a certain
number of their pins, controlled through a pinctrl driver.
Hmmm. I'd be tempted just to put the entire node definition there;
putting in a .dtsi file just to share the reg property doesn't seem
especially useful.
The 'compatible' property is defined in the SoC-specific .dtsi files,
since the compatible string identifies the number of pins and other
SoC-specific properties.

If this is the only pinctrl instance, you'd typically name the node just
"pinctrl", since the "@d0018000" isn't needed to get unique node names.

What is "ranges" for; this isn't a memory-mapped bus, right?
