Hi Hans,

On Apollo Lake devices the BIOS does not set up IRQ routing for the i801
SMBUS controller IRQ, so we end up with dev->irq set to IRQ_NOTCONNECTED.

Detect this and do not try to use the irq in this case silencing:
i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.1: Failed to allocate irq -2147483648: -107

Isn't it a BIOS bug?

No, as mentioned in:

BugLink: https://communities.intel.com/thread/114759

The BIOS deliberately does not contain IRQ routing issues because some
variants of the Windows driver for this falling over if their is
any IRQ routing set, so this is a "feature" not a bug :|

Certainly better than returning a cryptic error message, so:

Thanks.

However if this is considered a BIOS bug then a pr_err(FW_BUG...) would
be good to add IMHO.

See above, that would just replace one error message with another on all
Apollo Lake systems.
