If platform_get_irq() returns "zero or positive number on success" then this
test is wrong and should be "if (priv->irq < 0)"

Also, this series is a mix of different kinds of changes.

Please separate out the platform IRQ error checking and just submit exactly
those changes as a patch series.

The other bug fixes should be submitted outside of those changes since they
are unrelated.
