gpio: remove some legacy comments in build files
The build files for drivers/gpio has some wording and comments about the directory being reserved exclusively for GPIO expanders (according to the gpio.txt file these are on external busses) and this has been false for some time. We already have PL061 and Xilinx drivers which are in silicon and now I'm moving more silicon drivers here, so delete this and reword it a bit.
