devm_pinctrl_get might return the following error-valued pointers:
 - -EINVAL
 - -ENOMEM
 - -ENODEV
 - -EPROBE_DEFER

There are several error paths returning -EINVAL, one is when an invalid
phandle is used. Do you really want to ignore that?

IMO error handling is better done with inverse logic, that is continue
on some explicit error, bail out on all unknown stuff. This tends to be
more robust. Also the comment should be improved to not explain that for
-ENOMEM and -EPROBE_DEFER we bail out (which should be obvious for
anyone who can read C) but to explain why.

Also I'd put

	i2c_imx->pinctrl = NULL;

directly after devm_pinctrl_get() which I consider the more obvious
place for this.

Best regards
Uwe
