Hello!

of_irq_get() may return 0 as well as negative error number on failure,
while the driver only checks for the negative values. The driver would then
call request_irq(0, ...) in tegra_adma_alloc_chan_resources() and never get
valid channel interrupt.

Check for 'tdc->irq <= 0' instead and return -ENXIO from the driver's probe
iff of_irq_get() returned 0.

Yeah, that interface isn't very optimal. The problem with it, and we've
had this kind before, is that every driver ends up having to implement a
fallback for == 0 with the result of everyone returning a different
error code.

   Agreed.

Perhaps a good long-term solution would be to fix of_irq_get() to only
return positive for valid interrupts and negative error codes, so that
nobody has to deal with == 0 anymore.

See http://marc.info/?t=146447243300002&r=1 for my attempt to do this back in 2016.

That's obviously going to be a fairly big undertaking, so I'm fine with
fixing up the individual callsites first.

I think in this particular case it would be better to just call
platform_get_irq(), which already implements the equivalent.

   OK, I'll try looking into that...
