In this regard I think it's pretty obvious that we need to make GPIO optional. Else we will force the footprint to increase for the kernel image, even when not needed. Typically checking for -ENOSYS from the response from the GPIOLIB would do the trick. That's actually what we do already for GPIOs in mmc pwrseq simple case. Do you want to send another patch?
