Indeed.

If there is a pending interrupt, your interrupt handler (which returns
IRQ_NONE in this case) will be called repeatedly, until the driver gets
to clearing the pending interrupts below, or until the interrupt core
decides to give up, and disable it for good.

Who guarantees it is powered up? Your driver has indeed enabled the
(optional) clock above, but if the hardware block is part of a power
domain, it may still be powered down. The only way to make sure a
hardware block in a power domain is powered, is by enabling Runtime
PM and calling pm_runtime_get_sync().
