SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] microblaze: Change NO_IRQ to 0
>> As has been discussed many times[1], Using NO_IRQ set to anything other

yeah, there are some drivers which we share with ppc.
I will look at/fix them and then remove NO_IRQ from arch.

drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c:1132: if (rc == NO_IRQ) {
drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/ll_temac_main.c:1080: if ((lp->rx_irq == NO_IRQ) || (lp->tx_irq == NO_IRQ)) {
drivers/input/serio/xilinx_ps2.c:256: if (of_irq_to_resource(ofdev->dev.of_node, 0, &r_irq) == NO_IRQ) {
drivers/block/xsysace.c:459: if (ace->irq == NO_IRQ)
drivers/block/xsysace.c:1037: if (ace->irq != NO_IRQ) {
drivers/block/xsysace.c:1042: ace->irq = NO_IRQ;
drivers/block/xsysace.c:1089: if (ace->irq != NO_IRQ)
drivers/block/xsysace.c:1159: int irq = NO_IRQ;

Thanks,
Michal
