Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: don't put the reference to GPIO device in pinctrl_pins_show()

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>

The call to gpiod_to_gpio_device() does not increase the reference count
of the GPIO device struct so it must not be decreased. Remove the buggy
__free() decorator.
