AFAICS, of_gpio_count() always returns at least 0. Both if
CONFIG_OF_GPIO is y, m or n. And called of_gpio_named_count() also
currently doesn't return error values. Further, other drivers using
of_gpio_count() don't expect or catch <0.

However, it's reasonable to guard against of_gpio_count() < 1 since
probing without provided blocks should be void.

Will change this for the next patch update together with your leakage
findings.

Thanks for reporting!

Roland
