  The issue here is we want to remove the way, kernel is dependent on
 bootloader for these settings. The bootloader should only the minimum required
 for boot. In fact we should get rid of this entire
core_padconf_array_non_essential
 itself. We have already seen that certain pins when set in bootloader
and not used
 in kernel creates problem during power transitions etc.  The only
solution is to
 remove all these in the bootloader..

Thanks,
