[PATCH] ARM: davinci: fix kconfig dependency warning when !PINCTRL

[PATCH] ARM: davinci: fix kconfig dependency warning when !PINCTRL

[Necip Fazil Yildiran]

When ARCH_DAVINCI is enabled and PINCTRL is disabled, it results
in the following Kbuild warning:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for PINCTRL_SINGLE
  Depends on [n]: PINCTRL [=n] && OF [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y]
  Selected by [y]:
  - ARCH_DAVINCI [=y] && ARCH_MULTI_V5 [=y]

The reason is that ARCH_DAVINCI selects PINCTRL_SINGLE without depending on
or selecting PINCTRL while PINCTRL_SINGLE is subordinate to PINCTRL.

Honor the kconfig menu hierarchy to remove kconfig dependency warnings.

I think its better to fix this by changing the "select PINCTRL_SINGLE"
to "imply PINCTRL_SINGLE". It should be valid to build a DaVinci kernel
without pinctrl support if bootloader is taking care of the pin muxing.

I would not recommend it, but its not illegal either.

While at it, I would drop the other "select PINCTRL" line under "config
MACH_DA8XX_DT". It should not be needed since ARCH_DAVINCI will imply
PINCTRL_SINGLE

Thanks,
Sekhar
