We also want to check for negative. So I guess:

		val = gpiod_get_value_cansleep(gpios->desc[i]);
		if (val >= 0)
			ret = (ret << 1) | !!val;

No need to set for devices allocated with
devm_input_allocate_polled_device.

There is nothing in this driver that makes it OF-specific. I'd leave
of_match_ptr() as is, added #ifdef CONFIG_OF guard around
gpio_decoder_of_match, and changed "depends on GPIOLIB && OF" to
"depends on GPIOLIB || COMPILE_TEST".
