If static allocation and dynamic allocation GPIOs are present,
dynamic allocation pollutes the numberspace for static allocation,
causing static allocation to fail.
Enfore dynamic allocation above GPIO_DYNAMIC_BASE.
Seen on a GTA04 when omap-gpio (static) and twl-gpio (dynamic)
raced.
On that device it is fixed invasively by
commit 92bf78b33b0b4 ("gpio: omap: use dynamic allocation of base")
but lets also fix that for devices where there is still
a mixture of static and dynamic allocation.
Fixes: 7b61212f2a07 ("gpiolib: Get rid of ARCH_NR_GPIOS")
