Subject: pinctrl: exynos5440: Use off-stack memory for pinctrl_gpio_range

commit 71324fdc72ef0163e57631aa814a9a81e9e4770b upstream.

The range is registered into a linked list which can be referenced
throughout the lifetime of the driver. Ensure the range's memory is useful
for the same lifetime by adding it to the driver's private data structure.

The bug was introduced in the driver's initial commit, which was present in
v3.10.
