The intention was to have the "else" branch be executed both when gpio_irq was reset to 0 in the
above error path, and when gpio_irq was 0 in the first place (so the above section running
tqmx86_setup_irq() hasn't even been executed).

I got a better idea now however - by initializing flags to 0 and only setting it together with the
IRQ in the success path, no (!gpio_irq) branch is needed here at all. Will change in v3.

Best regards,
Matthias
