[PATCH] Give gpiolib an implementation of gpio_is_valid()

[Ben Nizette]

Platforms which use generic (NOP) gpio routines get an implementation of
gpio_is_valid() (in linux/gpio.h) but the people who actually use gpio
don't get one.  Roll an implementation for gpiolib based on
gpio_request(); this ought to do for most people.
