PINCTRL_RALINK won't appear on the menuconfig unless PINCTRL is enabled. 
So this'd be pointless.

 From what I see on other MIPS and ARM platforms, PINCTRL is supposed to 
be enabled at the platform option, like CONFIG_RALINK. However, the 
Ralink SoCs except MT7621, or rather the DTs for them, do not use the 
pinctrl driver so I only enable it for MT7621, and keep it optional for 
the remaining SoCs.

MediaTek pinctrl kconfig enables the pinctrl driver specific to the SoC 
by default, if the said SoC is enabled. I'm keeping this method when 
moving ralink pinctrl to mediatek with the series below.

So once the pinctrl driver is defined on the DTs for the remaining SoCs, 
we can just put PINCTRL under CONFIG_RALINK and everything will work fine.

Thanks a lot, I've started to refactor everything Ralink. With this 
series, I finalise the work on pinctrl.
