Masami Hiramatsu 90b05b0598 gpio: reject invalid gpio before getting gpio_desc
Check user-given gpio number and reject it before
calling gpio_to_desc() because gpio_to_desc() is
for kernel driver and it expects given gpio number
is valid (means 0 to 511).
If given number is invalid, gpio_to_desc() calls
WARN() and dump registers and stack for debug.
This means user can easily kick WARN() just by
writing invalid gpio number (e.g. 512) to
/sys/class/gpio/export.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
