Subject: [PATCH] omapfb: panel-sharp-ls037v7dw01: fix check of gpio_to_desc() return value

The change fixes a check of gpio_to_desc() return value, the function
returns either a valid pointer to struct gpio_desc or NULL, this makes
IS_ERR() check invalid and may lead to a NULL pointer dereference in
runtime.
