In commit f48b5e8bc2e1 ("dt-bindings: gpio-mmio: Add compatible
string for opencores,gpio") we marked opencores,gpio to be allowed with
brcm,bcm6345-gpio. This was wrong, opencores,gpio is not hardware
equivalent to brcm,bcm6345-gpio. It has a different register map and
is 8-bit vs braodcom which is 32-bit. Change opencores,gpio to be a
separate compatible string for MMIO GPIO.
Fixes: f48b5e8bc2e1 ("dt-bindings: gpio-mmio: Add compatible string for opencores,gpio")

So if you are changing all of the lines here, you can as well sort it
and put the new entry not at the end but in alphabetical spot.

OK, I will sort the list and mention that in commit message in v6.
