The comment doesn't match the code.  get_pendown_state() is used if it's
non-NULL, otherwise, the GPIO if it's not -1.

I'm getting a little worried about these tests for valid gpio numbers in
drivers - some check for non-zero, this one checks for not -1.  I get the
feeling that this is storing up problems for later.

Maybe using gpio_is_valid() would be a good idea?

But... a related question: do we need to do the check here?  Surely either
a pendown function is going to be supplied, or if not we're going to use
a GPIO, in which case the GPIO better be valid.  Maybe something to check
at driver initialisation time only?
