This driver can very well work via polling, if request_irq failed.
The problem is that many times i2c interrupts are shared. This
driver is not ready for shared interrupt as it will return IRQ_HANDLED,
in every case. Here we will get EBUSY when some other driver registered
handler and this driver is grabbing in exclusive mode.
So in this case just print error and continue in polling mode.
