I think less running code when possible and a smaller linux image is always a good thing, therefore, I propose these as modules instead of built-in.

CONFIG_PINCTRL_AMD
CONFIG_PINCTRL_CHERRYVIEW
CONFIG_PINCTRL_INTEL
CONFIG_PINCTRL_CANNONLAKE
CONFIG_PINCTRL_CEDARFORK
CONFIG_PINCTRL_DENVERTON
CONFIG_PINCTRL_ICELAKE

Ideally, yes; however pinctrl drivers may be needed very early during
boot so I don't know if these will work properly as modules.

The program is absolutely right; therefore, the computer must be wrong.

Fair enough. I don't have the hardware to test/verify. I have one laptop that uses canonlake one and its sd card reader works even if the pinctrl is a module but this is a big change so lets not fix it since its not broken. Feel free to close.
