4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c0a1ecb9f4e208f4b75d88fa9669748e3fd705ab upstream. Most functions that take a GPIO descriptor in need to check the descriptor for IS_ERR(). We do this mostly in the VALIDATE_DESC() macro except for the gpiod_to_irq() function which needs special handling.
