The driver's probe() method is written as if platform_get_irq() returns 0 on error, while actually it returns a negative error code (with all the other values considered valid IRQs). Rewrite the driver's IRQ checking code to pass the positive IRQ #s to ata_host_activate(), propagate errors upstream, and treat IRQ0 as error, returning -EINVAL, as the libata code treats 0 as an indication that polling should be used anyway...
