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.

This is a hardware index that 142 - indicate the logical order of the GPIO controller in the hardware architecture, 143 - usually in the sequence 0, 1, 2 .. n. The hardware index may be different 144 - from the order of register ranges and related to the backplane of how this 145 - one bank is connected to the outside through a pin controller for example. 146 - 147 141 Optionally, a GPIO controller may have a "ngpios" property. This property 148 142 indicates the number of in-use slots of available slots for GPIOs. The 149 143 typical example is something like this: the hardware register is 32 bits ··· 159 165 reg = <0x00000000 0x1000>; 160 166 gpio-controller; 161 167 #gpio-cells = <2>; 162 - gpio-bank = <0>; 163 168 ngpios = <18>; 164 169 } 165 170
