Ugh, taking one last look at the "pinctrl: Export pinctrl_unregister_mappings"
patch it is no good, sorry.

I just realized that if the mapping has been dupped, the if (maps_node->maps == map)
check will never be true, because maps_node->maps is the return value from kmemdup
and map is the map originally passed in while registering.

Linus, can you please drop this from your -next ?

So I see 2 options:
1) Add an orig_map member to maps_node and use that in the comparison,
this is IMHO somewhat ugly

2) Add a new pinctrl_register_mappings_no_dup helper and document in
pinctrl_unregister_mappings kdoc that it can only be used together
with the no_dup variant.

I believe that 2 is by far the best option. Linus do you agree or
do you have any other suggestions?

Regards,

Hans
