Hi Olof,

You are right, it does not strictly fixes a regression and we were late
for including these patches which are around since end of July...
I still sent this pull-request to enable more people to use device tree
on AT91 for the upcoming release.

If you do not take it for 3.7, maybe we will have to queue these patches
on top of our AT91 pinctrl work (on Linus Walleij side), so, you do need
to queue this one for the moment...

Best regards,
