I don't see the benefit in this patch.
The functions clearly exist for different reasons: gpio_is_valid() is
part of the gpio api, while check_gpio() exists to attach an error
message to a failed validity check without causing code duplication all
over omap_gpio.c.

Essentially what you are doing is removing a helpful error message.
