The pinctrl and GPIO core code make exceptions for the -ENOTSUPP error
code. One such example is gpio_set_config_with_argument_optional(), which
returns success when gpio_set_config_with_argument() returns -ENOTSUPP, but
reports failure for all other error codes.
Returning -EOPNOTSUPP from the pinctrl driver on the unsupported pinctrl
operation may lead to boot failures when pinctrl drivers implements
struct gpio_chip::set_config, the system uses GPIO hogs, and the
struct gpio_chip::set_config implementation returns -EOPNOTSUPP for the
unsupported operations.
Currently, the driver does not implement struct gpio_chip::set_config().
To avoid future failures, return -ENOTSUPP from
rzv2m_pinctrl_pinconf_set().
rzv2m_pinctrl_pinconf_group_get() is used when dumping pinctrl
configuration. pinconf_generic_dump_one(), which calls it, makes
exceptions for the -EINVAL and -ENOTSUPP error codes. The documentation
for struct pinconf_ops::pin_config_group_get states that it "should
return -ENOTSUPP and -EINVAL using the same rules as pin_config_get()".
The documentation for struct pinconf_ops::pin_config_get states:
"get the config of a certain pin, if the requested config is not available
on this controller this should return -ENOTSUPP and if it is available but
disabled it should return -EINVAL".
Return -ENOTSUPP for the unsupported pinctrl operation.
