Seems too good to be true, but now my curiosity is piqued.
It is and it isn't. It seems like they did manage to get rid of all banding (at least from what I can see in the rather narrow masked area on an ISO100 RAW file) so it looks very clean in that sense, no nasty fixed pattern noise. OTOH, the random read noise appears to measure about the same as for the original 7D (so 2-3 stops worse than D810).
So while the random read noise is still likely the same as ever with Canon, without the banding you can at least make 100% full use of every last little bit of it now, so the effective DR should be better than with the 7D.
(note how much farther to the right the histogram is in the Canon file in your comparison above)
