gpiolib: fix oops in gpio_get_value_cansleep()

commit 978ccaa8ea5d8c7bf6b676209f2fc126eae6355b upstream

We can get the following oops from gpio_get_value_cansleep() when a GPIO
controller doesn't provide a get() callback:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request for instruction fetch
 Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
 [...]
 NIP [00000000] 0x0

It's OK to request the value of *any* GPIO; most GPIOs are bidirectional,
so configuring them as outputs just enables an output driver and doesn't
disable the input logic.

So the problem is that gpio_get_value_cansleep() isn't making the same
sanity check that gpio_get_value() does: making sure this GPIO isn't one
of the atypical "no input logic" cases.
