This multi-line check is replicated in all conditions, would it make
sense to move it on a dedicated function to improve readability?

Here the return value of abx500_gpio_direction_input is set but never
checked, and will be always overwritten by the next abx500_gpio_ call...
Would it make sense to add a pr_err for it?  On the other side, if it
never fails, you can just drop the return field altogether.

That's also done in other conditions in the same 'switch', it may make
sense to have a patch just for that.

Thanks,
Fabio
