I'd say your binding is wrong. Either the container node
"pinctrl" is a software concept that contains the two devices for
port_a and port_b or there's only one pinctrl device that happens
to span some number of 0x1000 size banks. The former would be
written as so

pinctrl {
compatible = "fsl,kenetis-pinctrl";
reg = <0x40049000 0x2000>;
clocks = <&sim SIM_CLK_SCGC5_PORTA>, <&sim SIM_CLK_SCGC5_PORTB>;
};

and the latter would drop the container node and have two nodes
that probed the same driver instance twice.


port_a@40049000 {
compatible = "fsl,kinetis-pin-bank";
reg = <0x40049000 0x1000>;
clocks = <&sim SIM_CLK_SCGC5_PORTA>;
};

port_b@4004a000 {
compatible = "fsl,kinetis-pin-bank";
reg = <0x4004a000 0x1000>;
clocks = <&sim SIM_CLK_SCGC5_PORTB>;
};
