If you have GPIO_LIB gpio_cansleep oopses on an invalid
gpio.  So better gpio_request your pin first.

Hello,

I currently start using GPIO_LIB and don't have any chips yet.  The Oops will
vanish after I will have registered the chips for my SoC's gpios, but still
this way the code is more robust.

Best regards
Uwe
