As far as I can see, the only "use" of error values is that they will be 
passed to request_irq(), which will then return -EINVAL because they are 
not valid IRQ numbers, and that error will be handled appropriately. I 
think that's a relatively common pattern, so your commit message should 
really describe why you think it's a problem and why this addition is a 
meaningful improvement.
