> Subject: [PATCH v2] pinctrl: imx: Define imx6_pinctrl_soc_info in .data section
> 
> This commit is necessary to be able to re-use the pinctrl code in early SPL to
> properly configure pins.
> 
> The problem is that those "static" structures (without explicit
> initialization) are placed in the SDRAM area, which corresponds to u-boot
> proper (not even SPL).
> Hence, when one wants to configure pins before relocation via DTS/DM, the
> board hangs (imx6q SoC powered one) as only OCRAM area is available
> (0x009xxxxx).
> 
> This commit prevents from this issue by moving the imx6_pinctrl_soc_info
> structure to data section (from BSS).
