I think the correct fix here would be:

--- a/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx21.c
+++ b/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx21.c
@@ -325,7 +325,6 @@ static const struct of_device_id imx21_pinctrl_of_match[] =
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx21-iomuxc", },
        { }
 };
-MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, imx21_pinctrl_of_match);

 static struct platform_driver imx21_pinctrl_driver = {
        .driver = {


If you agree I can send a formal patch.
