Subject: pinctrl: single: Fix pcs_parse_bits_in_pinctrl_entry to use __ffs
 than ffs

commit 56b367c0cd67d4c3006738e7dc9dda9273fd2bfe upstream.

pcs_parse_bits_in_pinctrl_entry uses ffs which gives bit indices
ranging from 1 to MAX. This leads to a corner case where we try to request
the pin number = MAX and fails.

bit_pos value is being calculted using ffs. pin_num_from_lsb uses
bit_pos value. pins array is populated with:

pin + pin_num_from_lsb.

The above is 1 more than usual bit indices as bit_pos uses ffs to compute
first set bit. Hence the last of the pins array is populated with the MAX
value and not MAX - 1 which causes error when we call pin_request.

mask_pos is rightly calculated as ((pcs->fmask) << (bit_pos - 1))
Consequently val_pos and submask are correct.

Hence use __ffs which gives (ffs(x) - 1) as the first bit set.
