I'm uncertain about the validity of having client code call this api in
a racy manner. I'm likely just missing something here... It would be
nice if this scenario was described in a little bit more detail.

The recursive error print sounds like a distinct problem of its own,
that warrants being introduced in a patch of its own. But as with the
other part, I'm not able to spot a code path in the upstream kernel
where this hppens, so please properly describe the scenario where
touching the console would result back in another pinctrl_select_state().

Thanks,
Bjorn
