There's several different situations:

- Platform without pinctrl support
- Platform with pinctrl support but no pinmux specified in dt for device
  (E.G. pinmux setup in bootloader)
- Pinmux specified in dt
- Some kind of misconfiguration in dt

You could argue that devm_pinctrl_get_select_default() shouldn't return
an error for the first situation, but how should it be able to know the
difference between 2 and 4?
