Please fix your word wrapping, I've mentioned this to you before...

I would be more inclined to do this on card init time, doing it at
registration seems wrong as systems typically have interfaces that
aren't used and share pins with other functions.  By the time we are
setting up a card we've got a good idea we actually want to use the IP
but at probe time that's not the case.

It also seems bad that we're ignoring errors, does the pinctl API not
stub itself out well enough.
