Add ngpios property to the gpio controller's DT node so that controller
driver extracts total number of gpio lines present in controller

You meant to be compatible with existing Cygnus devices, correct?
Just to clarify, here you suggest we still leave the existing hard coded
ngpios in the driver, in order to be compatible with all existing Cygnus
devices (while the Cygnus device tree changes to use ngpio is still
being merged and through different maintainer), and have all new iProc
SoCs switch to use ngpios from device tree, right?
Thanks,
Ray
