The get/set calls have no error returns because "invalid GPIO" should have
been reported earlier in gpio_set_direction(). However, note that not all

platforms can read the value of output pins; those that can't should always
return zero. Also, using these calls for GPIOs that can't safely be accessed
without sleeping (see below) is an error.

Those return either the corresponding number in the other namespace, or

some GPIOs can't used as IRQs.) It is an unchecked error to use a GPIO
number that hasn't been marked as an input using gpio_set_direction(), or
