Humm, it's a bit of a gray area.

the comments for platform_get_irq and platform_get_irq_optional say:

* Return: non-zero IRQ number on success, negative error number on failure.

but if you look at platform_get_irq_optional, there are two references
to zero being a possible return value:

	if (num == 0 && has_acpi_companion(&dev->dev)) {
		ret = acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get(ACPI_COMPANION(&dev->dev), num);
		/* Our callers expect -ENXIO for missing IRQs. */
		if (ret >= 0 || ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
			goto out;

out_not_found:
	ret = -ENXIO;
out:
	WARN(ret == 0, "0 is an invalid IRQ number\n");
	return ret;

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/base/platform.c#L234

I am not sure if there's any merit in removing the test for the zero
return value. It may be on the paranoid side but it's aligned with a
possible code path in the platform code.

Or it could be that the platform code is wrong, and the label used
should have been

/* Our callers expect -ENXIO for missing IRQs. */
if (ret >= 0 || ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
	goto out_not_found;

Adding Andy Shevchenko for advice.
