This one and #0021 share a problem. Looks like what I tested
wasn't the version I thought I'd tested ...

The problem is right here:

What's going on is that set_irq_flags() is ARM-specific; so using it
will break builds everywhere else; it can't be used without adding
undesirable dependencies on ARM. (Interface changes done in mainline
may well overlook such stuff. And if this mechanism were important,
it would be needed on other platforms...)
That normal usage (just mark as "valid"):
- Clears the IRQ_NOREQUEST flag ... the troublesome bit
- Sets IRQ_NOPROBE ... like the standard set_irq_noprobe() call
- Clears IRQ_NOAUTOEN ... set for some PCMCIA irqs and little else
Thing is, ARM also *sets* IRQ_NOREQUEST (and NOPROBE) for all IRQs,
very early. And it's effectively the only architecture which uses
that flag. (PowerPC doesn't quite count, since you won't even get
an IRQ number until it's been mapped and that flag is cleared.)
... So it looks like I'm going to have to come up with a different
portability fix, sigh.
