gpio: Add helpers for optional GPIOs
Introduce gpiod_get_optional() and gpiod_get_index_optional() helpers
that make it easier for drivers to handle optional GPIOs.
Currently in order to handle optional GPIOs, a driver needs to special
case error handling for -ENOENT, such as this:
gpio = gpiod_get(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio)) {
if (PTR_ERR(gpio) != -ENOENT)
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
gpio = NULL;
}
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
With these new helpers the above is reduced to:
gpio = gpiod_get_optional(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio))
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
While at it, device-managed variants of these functions are also
provided.
