We're already running into the 512 GPIO limit on t600[01] depending on
how many SMC GPIOs we allocate, and a 2-die version could double that.
Let's make it 2K to be safe for now.

It may be worth pointing out that this doesn't seem to result in any
extra memory allocation, as this only controls the GPIO numbering.
My only worry is that since the allocation is done top-down, the new
limit is going to have a userspace visible impacts (i.e. anything in
/sys/class/gpiochip* will get renumbered). I don't think anyone should
rely on this anyway (they should use the canonical bus path), but this
is worth pointing out as a potential side effect.
Otherwise,

Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/misc), thanks!
