SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] pinctrl: remove unneeded #ifdef around declarations
Hi Masahiro,

thanks for your patch. For some reason I managed to pick up
patch 2 before patch 1. I applied this now with some fuzzing.
(Please check the result.)

I don't know if it is generally good to have phrases posed as
questions in a commit message, we prefer to have statements
about the change not a polemic dialog.

Maybe this flag was not in the top Makefile when the #ifdefs
where introduced?
