Thinking more about this, shouldn't this change go into platform_get_irq() instead of platform_get_irq_optional() ?
The way I see it, I think that the intended behavior for platform_get_irq_optional() is: 1) If have IRQ, return it, always > 0 2) If no IRQ, return 0 3) If error, return < 0 no ?
And for platform_get_irq(), case (2) becomes an error. Is this the intended semantic ? I am really not sure here as the functions kdoc description and the code do not match. Which one is correct ?
