As described in section 9.1 of the TI reference manual for AM335x [1],
"For writing to the control module registers, the MPU will need to be in
privileged mode of operation and writes will not work from user mode".
By adding the pin_dbg_set helper to pcs_pinctrl_ops it will be possible
to write these registers from the pins debug:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/44e10800.pinmux-pinctrl-single/
echo <pin-number> <reg-value> >pins

Changes in v3:
- Remove CONFIG_DEV_MEM dependency.
- Change pcs_pin_dbg_set() interface (char *buf -> unsigned int val).

Changes in v2:
- Remove CONFIG_SOC_AM33XX dependency.

this makes little sense, because it should be possible to write to the
registers without introduction of this interface, pin group/function
is the right level of abstraction for your particular task.

I strongly object against this new interface to be added.
