The problem with above code that it's setting the hard dependency to a LED
gpio. Is it crucial to get codec working? I bet no. In case
gpiod_get_optional() fails, it will be correct to bail out, because it will
mean other kind of errors not related to optionality of the GPIO (rather it's
present, but something went wrong).
