Move away from statically allocated GPIO IDs. Switch to dynamic ID allocation. Static IDs are deprecated because they cause issues when multiple GPIO controllers are to be found on the same platform. Add a bit of complexity to do pin number -> GPIO chip + offset. Previously, bank number and offsets were retrieved using division and remainder (bank size being constant 32). Now, to get the pin number matching a bank base, we must know the sum of ngpios of previous banks. This is done in find_nmk_gpio_from_pin() which also exposes the offset inside the bank. Also remove the assumption that bank sizes are constant. Instead of using NMK_GPIO_PER_CHIP as bank size, use nmk_gpio_chips[i]->ngpio.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
