Commit "i2c: cadence: Add standard bus recovery support" breaks for i2c
devices that have no pinctrl defined. There is no requirement for this to exist
in the DT. This has worked perfectly well without this before in at least 1 real
usage case on hardware (Mali Komeda DPU, Cadence i2c to talk to a tda99xx
phy). Adding the requirement to have pinctrl set up in the device tree (or
otherwise be found) is a regression where the whole i2c device is lost
entirely (in this case dropping entire devices which then leads to the drm
display stack unable to find the phy for display output, thus having no drm
display device and so on down the chain).

This converts the above commit to an enhancement if pinctrl can be found
for the i2c device, providing a timeout on read with recovery, but if not, do
what used to be done rather than a fatal loss of a device.

This restores the mentioned display devices to their working state again.

May be we could differentiate between ENODEV and other errors.
As we want to do this for the case when it is not provided.

We could, but just keep in mind this patch is essentially restoring behavior on any pinctrl error to previous behavior - so trying to undo the regression as strictly as possible.

Certainly checking specifically for ENODEV does fix it for me which is the case of no pinctrl. I'll send a v2.
