This code is wrong.  There are platforms where plat->gpio_cd is negative
(because there isn't an associated GPIO) and we still expect the driver
to successfully bind.  In that case, the driver gets the CD and WP
information via the status callback.

So this is an incompatible change with existing (and required) driver
behaviour.
