Bug Description
[Impact]
* The pinctrl-starfive driver has a race when initializing groups and
functions that may result in other drivers not being able to initialize.
* If this happens to the mmc driver the board will fail to boot.
* This is an example of this happening:

[Test Plan]
* Unfortunately this is a race that happens rarely so rebooting the board
several times is the only known way to reproduce.
[Where problems could occur]
* The fix could get the locking wrong and lock up the machine at boot.
