(sound/soc/codecs/rt5645.c)
rt5645_i2c_probe()
  (drivers/gpio/devres.c)
  ->devm_gpiod_get_optional()
    ->devm_gpiod_get_index_optional()

As long as seeing current implementation of 
'devm_gpiod_get_index_optional()', this function never returns ENOENT. 
In this case, it returns NULL.
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpio/devres.c#n185

IS_ERR(NULL) is false, thus the additional condition is useless. When 
entering the branch, error code should be always returned.

For your purpose, checking NULL at first, then handles the error 
properly, like:
