The reason is that the interrupt polarity support for mediatek chips merely checks for NULL pointer instead of a casted error return value in mtk_sysirq_of_init() so any other casted error value passes the NULL pointer check and causes a kernel panic when dereferenced. Use IS_ERR() and return the error value via PTR_ERR().
