The Report of the January 6 Select Committee, which comprises a history of and the various bases for its subpoena to Steve Bannon, also walks through the key reasons why his refusal to produce documents and appear is legally baseless.
I've been wondering how long this will drag the whole thing out? Which is their main strategy after all. Can Trump's lawsuit and Bannon's attempted legal shenanigans, and the attendant remedies you outline, drag on for months and months?

"What can we do to speed up the investigation of Trump by the House Select Committee? Tell President Biden that getting to the truth about January 6th is not a partisan issue and that his judgments should not be clouded by fear of Republican response. He should waive executive privilege to the fullest extent possible regarding the events of January 6th, not on a case-by-case basis. He should expressly waive privilege over all documents that Trump seeks to conceal under cover of the privilege. And he should reconsider his choice for Attorney General in light of the ongoing coup attempt by Trump and his co-conspirators. The White House can be reached at 202-456-1111 on Tuesday through Thursday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM Eastern."
Republicans are all laughing at the January 6 Select Committee. They know--and knew all along--that they would fight it, every step of the way. And that the Dems are just going to *take it,* and not do anything to compel cooperation from those who've been subpoenaed. This is all a big joke, and let's be clear: The direction this country is heading is exactly what tRump (and Pootin) wanted. Dark times ahead, make no mistake. This country will become an oligarchy in our lifetime. Because they know exactly what they can do, what they can get away with (everything, it seems) and we're just standing by with our thumbs in our asses hoping that the checks and balances work. They're not. They haven't been. We, as citizens, voters, can only do so much. We're screwed, y'all.
Congress and the DOJ need to move on this and prosecute him if they do not it will set a very dangerous precedent
Dragging it out is Trump's model - so Bannon's too. Lock him up.

The Watergate investigation took 2 years
