Produce an error if request_irq() failed.

NACK!

We have already initialized a bunch of things before doing the request_irq. We either have to make request_irq first, or undo all the initializations.

This is all a bit whacky, at this point the only sane thing I can think of doing is to panic if we cannot get the irq.
