Why can't this be built as a module?

Please write a normal if statement, the ternery operator doesn't help legibility.

That seems wrong, or at least something that should be separate? Previously we needed interrupts for DMA operation but now we enable interrupts only if we don't use DMA. It feels like we want to make the change for DMA separately if only to make it clear for bisection, are we 100% sure that masking the interrupt won't also mask the DMA request signals?
- irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0);
- if (irq >= 0) {
dev_dbg(&pdev->dev, "using PIO mode\n");dev->use_pio = true;ret = devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, irq, i2s_irq_handler, 0,pdev->name, dev);if (ret < 0) {dev_err(&pdev->dev, "failed to request irq\n");return ret;}- }
This also seems wrong. We're forcing PIO if an interrupt is provided rather than based on DMA being configured which means that if the interrupt is wired up and happens to be described in DT we'll get worse performance. People should be able to just describe the system without worrying about this, and we might find some other use for the interrupts in future. Indeed right now it would probably be reasonable to use the error interrupts all the time if they're available.
