Yes, it is obviously missed in the previous patches, as previously these pinctrl drivers
do NOT support module build at all.

And MODULE_LICENSE is a MUST when drivers supporting module build, build will report failure
if module license missed, so I think it is also part of the module build support patch,
do you mean it is better to add a separate patch to add the MODULE_LICENSE to all pinctrl drivers missing it?
Maybe we can get more opinion from maintainer, I am NOT very sure whether it is better to separate
the module license as a single patch....

thanks,
Anson
