[PATCH] gpio: Remove impossible checks on container_of() result

[Stephen Boyd <sboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

container_of() does pointer math on the pointer that's passed in.
If it were to return a NULL pointer the value passed in would
need to be perfectly offset from 0 to make that so. Remove these
checks because they don't make sense.
