pinctrl: Don't allow PINCTRL_AMD to be a module
It was observed that by allowing pinctrl_amd to be loaded later in the boot process that interrupts sent to the GPIO controller early in the boot are not serviced. The kernel treats these as a spurious IRQ and disables the IRQ. This problem was exacerbated because it happened on a system with an encrypted partition so the kernel object was not accesssible for an extended period of time while waiting for a passphrase. To avoid this situation from occurring, stop allowing pinctrl-amd from being built as a module and instead require it to be built-in or disabled.
