pinctrl: dynamically alloc temp array when parsing dt pinconf options

A patch from »pinctrl: fix some issues with new pinconfig dt parsing« in state Mainline for linux-kernel

From: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...> Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2013 17:17:57 +0200

Commit-Message

Allocating the temorary array in pinconf_generic_parse_dt_config on stack might cause problems later on, when the number of options grows over time. Therefore also allocate this array dynamically to be on the safe side. Suggested-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@...> Signed-off-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...>
