Great, that's good news :)

Maybe this is related to the initcall ordering..

..that function just initializes the pdata for smsc911x driver, and
should not be a driver. You need to add devm_pinctrl_get_select_default()
to the probe of smsc911x or the GPMC probe.

We should use the existing smsc911x binding, then have a separate GPMC
binding for the GPMC driver.
