Subject: [PATCH v2] platform: don't return 0 from platform_get_irq[_byname]() on error
Date: Mon, 04 Jul 2016 01:04:24 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5153966.D0zlDt82d1@wasted.cogentembedded.com> (raw)

of_irq_get[_byname]() return 0 iff  irq_create_of_mapping() call fails.
Returning both  error code and 0 on failure is a sign of a misdesigned API,
it makes the failure check unnecessarily complex and error prone. We should
rely  on the platform IRQ resource in this case, not return 0,  especially
as 0 can be  a valid  IRQ resource too...

Fixes: aff008ad813c ("platform_get_irq: Revert to platform_get_resource if of_irq_get fails")
