I see that the pinctrl driver was merged into v7.4-rc1 and also
lists ARCH_AMBARELLA. It doesn't cause any build warnings or issues, so
I'm fine with this too just as long as ARCH_AMBARELLA is going to appear
in the tree.

I'll make shared immutable branch with the dt-bindings this evening
my time. It'll be fine for patch 4 to go through the DTS tree.
