pinctrl: imx: reset group index on probe 

Group index is incremented on every new group parsed. Since the
field is part of struct imx_pinctrl_soc_info, which is typically
a global variable passed by the individual pinctrl-imx.c based
driver, it does not get cleared automatically when re-probing the
driver. This lead imx_pinctrl_parse_functions passing a group
pointer which is outside of the allocated group space on second
probe and onwards. Typically this ended up in a NULL pointer
dereference when accessing the name field like this:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
...
PC is at strcmp+0x18/0x44
LR is at imx_dt_node_to_map+0xc4/0x290

Avoid this by setting group_index to 0 on probe.

This has been observed when using DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE.
