As it turns out more than just Armada 370 and XP support using GPIO
lines as PWM lines. For example the Armada 38x family has the same
hardware support. As such "marvell,armada-370-xp-gpio" for the
compatible string is a misnomer.
Change the compatible string to "marvell,armada-370-gpio" before the
driver makes it out of the -rc stage. This also follows the practice of
using only the first device family supported as part of the name.
Also update the documentation and comments in the code accordingly.
