[PATCH] input: gpio-keys: report error when invalid key number

From: Peng Fan
Date: Mon Aug 24 2015 - 08:07:50 EST


When the input key number is not valid one of
'/sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys/keys', need to report
an error, but not continue.

See the following example:
root@yocto:/sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys# cat keys
114-116
root@yocto:/sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys# echo 77 > keys
root@yocto:/sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys#

we want 'echo 77 > keys' to report an error, but not
silence to give us an fake illusion that all is 'ok'.
