Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: use to octal permissions for debugfs files

Switch over pinctrl debugfs files to use octal permissions as they are
preferred over symbolic permissions. Refer to commit f90774e1fd27
("checkpatch: look for symbolic permissions and suggest octal instead").

Signed-off-by: Drew Fustini <drew@...gleboard.org>

Patch note:
- I learned about this preference of octal over symbolic when I created
  an RFC to add a new debugfs file ("pinmux-select"). I am submitting
  this patch to switch existing entries in pinctrl over to octal before
  I submit a proper PATCH for the "pinmux-select" functionality in which
  I will use octal permissions for the new file.
