[PATCH v1 0/2] Add pinctrl_pm_select_init_state helper function

[Christian Bruel]

Some platforms need to set the pinctrl to an initial state during
pm_resume, just like during probe. To achieve this, the missing function
pinctrl_pm_select_init_state() is added to the list of already existing
pinctrl PM helper functions.

This allows a driver to use the pinctrl init and default states in the
pm_runtime platform resume handlers, just as in probe.

Additionally the missing documentation describing these pinctrl standard
states used during probe has been added.

This fixes a build issue for the STM32MP25 PCIe staged in the pcie tree,
id 5a972a01e24b
 
Changes in v1:
   - Add missing information about PM helper functions.

[PATCH v1 1/2] Documentation: pinctrl: Describe PM helper functions for standard states.

[Christian Bruel]

Clarify documentation for predefined standard state names 'default',
'init', 'sleep', 'idle' and their associated PM API.

+PM runtime suspend/resume might need to execute the same init sequence as
+during probe. Since the predefined states are already attached to the

[PATCH v1 2/2] pinctrl: Add pinctrl_pm_select_init_state helper function

[Christian Bruel]

If a platformm requires an initial pinctrl state during probing, this
helper function provides the client with access to the same initial
state.

eg:
 xxx_suspend_noirq
    ...
    pinctrl_pm_select_sleep_state

 xxx resume_noirq
    pinctrl_pm_select_init_state
    ...
    pinctrl_pm_select_default_state

Björn, just apply this with the other patch so all works fine
in your tree, I don't think it will conflict anything.
