Subject: [PATCH] gpiolib: Allow to use setters with return value for
 output-only gpios

The gpiod_direction_output_raw_commit() function checks if any setter
callback is present before doing anything. As the new GPIO setters with
return values were introduced, make this check also succeed if one is
present.
