How about this?
(defun decode-coding-string-safely (string coding-system)
"Decode STRING by CODING-SYSYTEM and return the result.
If STRING contains invalid byte sequence for CODING-SYSTEM, return nil."
(let* ((decoded (decode-coding-string str coding-system))
(charsets (find-charset-string decoded)))
(and (not (memq 'eight-bit-control charsets))
(not (memq 'eight-bit-graphic charsets))
decoded)))
