What do you mean by "is fixed"? and also isnt it the same explanation
as above for the "=0" case ("The rest of the patch..."?

Please try to rephrase the whole commit message so that it is
more concise and clearer to understand, and takes into account the
previous comments from Andy/Jiri/Marteen?
If I understood these comments correctly, maybe something like:
------
When IRQ = 0, this means that no interrupt is used, and activate
polling mode.
And since documentation still says that negative IRQ values cannot be
absolutely ruled-out, add a check for negative IRQ values to
increase robustness.
