Hi Geert,

Thank you for the review.

My intention was to keep the DTB as minimal as possible so that it
includes just the required pinmuxes which were enabled on the RZ/Five.
For example [0], [1] we do delete the pinctrl for the nodes which are
marked as disabled. Do you think we should drop it?

But now that things are falling in place for RZ/Five we can ignore this patch.
