Would that bring something more than what is currently present? I've set
PINCTRL_NOMADIK to select GPIO_NOMADIK. This means that if
PINCTRL_NOMADIK=y then GPIO_NOMADIK=y. If PINCTRL_NOMADIK=n then
GPIO_NOMADIK is free to be whatever.

This behavior sounds similar to what would happen if adding "default
PINCTRL_NOMADIK".

Thanks,
