gpio: revert bank bindings

Browse source 
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.

A GPIO controller may specify a bank ID. This is a hardware index that
indicate the logical order of the GPIO controller in the hardware architecture,
usually in the sequence 0, 1, 2 .. n. The hardware index may be different
from the order of register ranges and related to the backplane of how this
one bank is connected to the outside through a pin controller for example.
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
