[PATCH] Revert "gpio: bail out silently on NULL descriptors"

This reverts commit 54d77198fdfb("gpio: bail out silently on NULL
descriptors").
This commit causes the following code to fail:
gpio_desc = devm_gpiod_get_optional(dev, ...);
gpio_irq = gpiod_to_irq(gpio_desc);
if (gpio_irq >= 0) {
ret = devm_request_irq(dev, gpio_irq, ...);
And now ret is an error causing the probe function in question to bail.
The problem here is that gpiod_to_irq now returns 0 for a NULL
gpio_desc while 0 is a valid irq-nr. Also see:
commit 4c37ce8608a8("gpio: make gpiod_to_irq() return negative for NO_IRQ")
which specifically avoids returning 0.
