We changed par->gpio.c from an int to a pointer in patch 1 so we have
to update all the checks as well in the same patch.  Otherwise it breaks
`git bisect`.

(I don't know this code well.  But it just feels like it has to be
breaking git bisect just from from glancing at the patches.  Perhaps I
have misunderstood).
