If the function pinctrl_select_state() fails because one pin is already
taken elsewhere, pinmux_enable_setting makes all the necessary pin_free
calls (and not more than necessary).
The problem here is that devm_pinctrl_put() will be called on the pin
group, and each pin in this group has already been freed.

Example:
If a i2c function has already sucessfully taken pins 5 and 6.
And now, pinctrl_bind_pins() is called for function PHY (pins 3 4 5 6 7).
pinmux_enable_setting() will fail AND call pin_free on necessary pins.
But if devm_pinctrl_put() is called, it will call again pin_free on pins
3 4 5 6 7.
So, the pins 5 and 6 will be released (and pins 3 4 7 double freed).
Which means that even if the i2c function has claim the pins, they will
be available for other functions.

This patch simply doesn't call devm_pinctrl_put when
pinctrl_select_state fails, but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do.
