This change broke all i2c slaves not having interrupts (e.g. da9210 and at24
on r8a7791/koelsch), which now fail to probe:

-DA9210: 1000 mV at 4600 mA
 ...
 i2c /dev entries driver
-at24 2-0050: 256 byte 24c02 EEPROM, writable, 16 bytes/write
+at24: probe of 2-0050 failed with error -22
 i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: probed
 ...
+da9210: probe of 6-0068 failed with error -22
+i2c-sh_mobile e60b0000.i2c: I2C adapter 6, bus speed 100000 Hz, DMA=y

i2c_device_probe() fails because of_irq_get() returns -EINVAL,
originating from of_irq_parse_one() not finding an "interrupts" property
(there is none).

Apparently you overlooked a difference between irq_of_parse_and_map()
and of_get_irq(): the former returns 0 if there's no "interrupts" property,
while the latter forwards the error code from of_irq_parse_one.

I see two ways to fix this:
  1. Make of_get_irq() return 0 if no "interrupts" property was found, to
     make it behave more similar to irq_of_parse_and_map().
     Does any code rely on the error forwarding?
  2. Make i2c_device_probe() only return if -EPROBE_DEFER, and ignore
     all other error codes.
     It seems irq_create_of_mapping() never returns an error code, but
     0 in case of failures?

As platform_get_irq{,_byname}() do the latter, I'll cook a patch
to do that.
