Hi Andrew,

There is another difference, except for warning message.
There is might_sleep_if(extra_checks) in gpio_set_value_cansleep().

Also, I saw the Documentation/gpio.txt as below:

172 /* GPIO OUTPUT */
173 void gpio_set_value(unsigned gpio, int value);
...
213 /* GPIO OUTPUT, might sleep */
214 void gpio_set_value_cansleep(unsigned gpio, int value);


Best regards,
Jingoo Han
