I'm not sure what do you mean in your question...
I assume you're suggesting that the registration of the driver ISR function should be done only after clearing the pending interrupts?!
Anyway, any pending interrupt that might exist is irrelevant to the current cctrng driver which just started (we're in the probe function)

It is assumed that when the driver is probed it is already powered. Only then, the driver initializes and enables the runtime PM to allow power down of the HW when it is not in use.
