Please make the entire comment a C++ so things look more intentional.

The core already validates this, are you seeing it happen? If so we
should fix the core and either way just remove setup() entirely.

We will just silently ignore any unknown interrupts here. It would be
better to either only ack known interrupts (so genirq can notice if
there's a problem with other interrupts) or at least log that we're
seeing unexpected interrupts. The current code will cause trouble if
this is deployed in a system with the interrupt line shared (which the
driver claims to support), or if something goes wrong and the IP starts
asserting some interrupt that isn't expected.

I don't see any handling of these in the code?
