I have not, as I do not have access to any Baytrail hardware. This is
the very reason why I'd like this code to be buildable as a module: I'm
not happy with a useless 50 kB driver being loaded on all my systems. I
was hopping someone at Intel would have access to the hardware to
perform the test.
Meanwhile I have found that my patch is not good, because since I wrote
it, Paul Gortmaker remove the module glue code from the driver itself:
commit 360943a8d26265825025b88da32961bd9ad4f7c6

pinctrl: baytrail: make it explicitly non-modular
This would have to be reverted first. Paul, do I understand it
correctly that the commit above was generated automatically and was not
specific to the pinctrl-baytrail driver?
