Following build errors noticed on Linux next-20231204 tag with gcc-8 toolchain
for arm and arm64.

## Test Regressions (compared to next-20231201)
* arm, build
  - gcc-8-defconfig

* arm64, build
  - gcc-8-defconfig

Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing <lkft@linaro.org>

Build log arm and arm64:

This apparently comes from c0c8dd0a7773 ("pinctrl: core: Add a
convenient define PINCTRL_GROUP_DESC()") and following patches
from Andy Shevchenko (added to Cc).

I also checked different compiler versions and found that the
new code works fine with gcc-13.2.0, but not with gcc-12 or
older.
