There's already a gpio_is_valid() patch in the MM merge queue;
it comes with the documentation, and covers implementations which
include the <asm-generic/gpio.h> header (for cansleep stubs) but
don't use gpiolib.

So, please wait till RC1, by which time I expect Andrew's queue
will be relatively depleted.  :)
