Just a quick note: Sentences in parentheses "" are sources/explanations. Also, I'm not taking any side, I'm just stating what I've understood from the lore.

Gwyn couldn't have banished the Firstborn. He had already left far before the Firstborn left. (Sunlight Blade was put on Gwyn's tomb by the firstborn, perhaps as a final farewell.)

The spear used by Ornstein is never reffered to more than that it was his own. However none of the Silver or Black Knight weapons look even remotely similar in style to his spear, hardly a common type of weapon. Also the spear shares characteristics with his armor.

(The Dragonslayer Spear deals Lightning damage which, although the blacksmiths handling these weapons were found in Anor Londo, was probably still rare as only four weapons available in Lordran naturally deals Lightning damage, all found in Anor Londo.)

As stated in the first section, Gwyn left Anor Londo to link the fire before the Firstborn even left. It is impossible that he could've been recruited as one of Gwyn's elite warriors.

(Once again, Sunlight Blade was left on Gwyn's tomb.)

Solaire may be the firstborn, but even if he is, it doesn't change his adventure in any way. His life ends when he finally succumbs to insanity. He's a naive, and outright dumb, man. Not to say he's a bad man. But he has a very unrealistic mindset.

(Even when searching in the depths of Lost Izalith, he could not find what he was looking for. His life is then ended, whether this means his death, at the hands of the Chosen Undead or the First Flame, or not is up to the Chosen Undead. Also, if he truly was from Astora then he must've heard of the horrors of the Curse, such as the fall of Balder. And being undead is not a requirement to reach Lordran as proven by Sieglinde of Catarina.)
