Hmm. I had it in my head that this was documented behaviour, but
I can't find such in the docs, so agreed checking it makes sense.

I would be very surprised if this ever changed as it's one of the
things that makes optional gpios easy to work with but who knows!

+CC Linus and Bartosz for feedback on this one.

Definitely needs describing and all configuration sysfs etc needs to be read only
if we can't control it.
