gpiolib: decouple might_sleep_if() from DEBUG

Be more consistent about runtime programming interface abuse warnings,
which can reduce some confusion and trigger bugfixes.  Based on an
observation and patch from Jani Nikula.

Also update doc to highlight some sleeping-call issues and to match some
recent changes.

 Spinlock-Safe GPIO access
