I wonder if it makes sense to merge both patches under the name of "fix
gpio-handling" or similar. Not sure, though...

Will probably work, but maybe it is better to reorganize the code to
just have one success-exit-point. That would be mean adding an else
branch to this if-block.

You could do the same in the remove-path.
