gpio: revert bank bindings
Keep the words talking about what a GPIO bank is, but remove the binding. We have not agreed that this is something we want to have. Acked-by: Rob Herring <robh+dt@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

Optionally, a GPIO controller may have a "ngpios" property. This property
indicates the number of in-use slots of available slots for GPIOs. The
typical example is something like this: the hardware register is 32 bits
