If not select PINCTRL, pinmux_enable returns ok by default and pinmux_get Returns NULL which also does not block. So it will not break other i.MX currently since only mx6q are using PINCTRL.

After we move to one single image for mx5 and mx6, it could be an issue Since PINCTRL may be selected by default. So mx5 pinmux driver is in my TODO list.

For platforms do select PINCTRL but does not have pinmux driver ready, for example, single image for both mx5&mx6, IMHO it may be better to fix in driver to avoid introduce too much complexity in pinctrl core.
