I think the cast indicates that you're mixing unrelated interfaces. Also
looking at patch 9/11 it seems like you'll need extra locking to protect
against concurrent accesses in the interrupt handler and the ->capture()
implementation anyway, so might as well use that lock for this access.

I think all the latter are really wrong. Looking at the implementation
of platform_get_irq() there are a number of error codes that it can
return (-EPROBE_DEFER amongst them), so collapsing them all into an
-EINVAL, -ENODEV or -ENXIO is very wrong.
