Subject: [PATCH 1/2] leds: trigger: gpio: fix warning in gpio trigger for gpios whose accessor function may sleep

When using a GPIO driver whose accessor functions may sleep (e.g. an
I2C GPIO extender like PCA9554) the following warning is issued:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 665 at drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:2274 gpiod_get_raw_value+0x3c/0x48()

Fix this by using the _cansleep() variant of gpio_get_value().
