the compilation failure occurs on platform which not define the 
CONFIG_PINCTRL , most of the pinctrl APIs are wrapped with PINCTRL 
config, for example pinctrl_select_state() or devm_pinctrl_get().

In addition if we add the getter in pinctrl/devinfo.h other drivers may 
access the pins field without re-call devm_pinctrl_get().
