gpiolib: return -ENOENT if no GPIO mapping exists

Browse source 
Some devices drivers make use of optional GPIO parameters. For such
drivers, it is important to discriminate between the case where no
GPIO mapping has been defined for the function they are requesting, and
the case where a mapping exists but an error occured while resolving it
or when acquiring the GPIO.

This patch changes the family of gpiod_get() functions such that they
will return -ENOENT if and only if no GPIO mapping is defined for the
requested function. Other error codes are used when an actual error
occured during the GPIO resolution.

Both functions return either a valid GPIO descriptor, or an error code checkable

with IS_ERR() (they will never return a NULL pointer). -ENOENT will be returned
if and only if no GPIO has been assigned to the device/function/index triplet,
other error codes are used for cases where a GPIO has been assigned but an error
occured while trying to acquire it. This is useful to discriminate between mere
errors and an absence of GPIO for optional GPIO parameters.
Device-managed variants of these functions are also defined:
