This code, and the way descriptors are used in the driver leads
me to believe that the right solution is to use the optional
call with a hard error check:
gpiod = devm_gpiod_get_index_optional(...);
if (IS_ERR(gpiod))
return PTR_ERR(gpiod);
if (gpiod) {
... followed by the old code ...
This makes sure that the array member is left NULL if there is no
GPIO on this line, and all other errors, such as -EPROBE_DEFER
which currently absolutely does not work, will lead to us properly
exiting with an error.
