Pinctrl helpers for runtime PM
During review of pinctrl hooks to drivers subsystem maintainers have complained about too much boilerplate code being added to drivers. Try to code this up in the central PM runtime code (such as already exists for e.g. clocks) and use the central facilities instead to minimize boilerplate and bugs.

Headline : Pinctrl boilerplate reduction implemented
Acceptance: TODO (to which tree or by whom will this go? any tests to pass? Something will need to be converted? Etc.)
Roadmap id: TODO (Can this be with bit of imagination linked to e.g. single zImage, KWG maintenance card or do we want own Card?)
