Subject: [PATCH] i2c: core: dont change pinmux state to GPIO during recovery setup

Ever since PXA I2C driver was moved to the generic I2C recovery, I2C has
stopped working completely on Armada 3720 if the pins are specified in DTS.

After a while it was traced down to the only difference being that PXA
driver did not change the pinmux state to GPIO before trying to acquire the
GPIO pins.
And indeed as soon as this call is removed I2C starts working.

To me it seems that this call is not required at all as devm_gpiod_get()
will result in the pinmux state being changed to GPIO via the pinmux
set_mux() op.
