Subject: [PATCH] gpio: revert bank bindings
Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2016 14:49:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461070196-15382-1-git-send-email-linus.walleij@linaro.org> (raw)

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.

 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
