I didn't see a response on the question about what would happen if we
did this unconditionally (i.e. just s/dev->pin/dev->irq/ in the original
code).  We should avoid introducing flags like this unless there's a
good reason.

Maybe submit a patch that does it unconditionally, and see if that draws
a complaint.
