gpio: omap: use dynamic allocation of base



Static allocatin is deprecated and may cause probe mess,
if probe order is unusual.

like this example
[    2.553833] twl4030_gpio twl4030-gpio: gpio (irq 145) chaining IRQs 161..178
[    2.561401] gpiochip_find_base: found new base at 160
[    2.564392] gpio gpiochip5: (twl4030): added GPIO chardev (254:5)
[    2.564544] gpio gpiochip5: registered GPIOs 160 to 177 on twl4030
[...]
[    2.692169] omap-gpmc 6e000000.gpmc: GPMC revision 5.0
[    2.697357] gpmc_mem_init: disabling cs 0 mapped at 0x0-0x1000000
[    2.703643] gpiochip_find_base: found new base at 178
[    2.704376] gpio gpiochip6: (omap-gpmc): added GPIO chardev (254:6)
[    2.704589] gpio gpiochip6: registered GPIOs 178 to 181 on omap-gpmc
[...]
[    2.840393] gpio gpiochip7: Static allocation of GPIO base is deprecated, use dynamic allocation.
[    2.849365] gpio gpiochip7: (gpio-160-191): GPIO integer space overlap, cannot add chip
[    2.857513] gpiochip_add_data_with_key: GPIOs 160..191 (gpio-160-191) failed to register, -16
[    2.866149] omap_gpio 48310000.gpio: error -EBUSY: Could not register gpio chip

So probing was done in an unusual order, causing mess
and chips not getting their gpio in the end.
