Exynos pinctrl drivers contain pretty big per-SoC data structures. The pinctrl-exynos object file contained code and data for both ARMv7 and ARMv8 SoCs thus it grew big. There will not be a shared image between ARMv7 and ARMv8 so there is no need to combine all of this into one driver. Splitting the data allows to make it more granular (e.g. code related to ARMv8 Exynos is self-contained), slightly speed up the compilation and reduce the effective size of compiled kernel. The common data structures and functions reside still in existing pinctrl-exynos.c. Only the SoC-specific parts were moved out to new files. Except marking few functions non-static and adding them to header, there were no functional changes in the code.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
