No. is_byt_cr() works correctly, as my device is a BYT-T (not a BYT-CR)
device. :)

The problem here is that the kernel expects the IRQ at index 5 for BYT-T 
devices, but my device has only a single IRQ listed. Forcing is_byt_cr() 
to return TRUE is just a workaround to make it use the IRQ at index 0 
(which is the correct one).

Currently, sst_acpi supports these two variations:
  - BYT-T:  5 IRQs listed -> acpi_ipc_irq_index = 5
  - BYT-CR: 5 IRQs listed -> acpi_ipc_irq_index = 0

On my device (and a few other Android based BYT-T devices) I have found:
  - BYT-T:  1 IRQ  listed -> acpi_ipc_irq_index = 0
but at the moment the kernel attempts to use acpi_ipc_irq_index = 5 from
BYT-T above.
