Yeah, well once we have the custom struct device, we should configure
the pins there. Some of the pins have multiple options and should be
configured in board-*.c files, but some devices have just one working
combination of pins.

So hopefully for most pins,  by selecting the devices that the board has,
the devices would configure the pins for the board.
