Realistically, the only case that could happen would be
ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK == 32 and BITS_PER_LONG ==64. so I would go for
ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK < BITS_PER_LONG

I don't think we have multiplatform kernels that run both in 32 and 64
bits. I don't believe ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK will ever change, it has
been 32 on all the atmel SoCs since 2001.

I can go for a variable instead of a constant but the fact is that there
is currently no 64bit SoC with that IP. I added the compile time check
just in case a 64 bit SoC appears with that IP one day.
