Function platform_get_irq() can return 0. Which means NO_IRQ.
So this change will not allow to return 0.

This change is help to use platform_get_irq() without this,

val = platform_get_irq();
if (val <= 0)
ret = val ? val : -ENODEV;

You need to audit the drivers and make sure you are not breaking them
with this. I believe at least i2c designware controller on certain
boards has DEFINE_RES_IRQ(0) which will be broken by this patch.
Yes, you are right. Few driver is using DEFINE_RES_IRQ(0).
Example:
drivers/mfd/intel-lpss.c
static const struct resource intel_lpss_dev_resources[] = {
DEFINE_RES_MEM_NAMED(LPSS_DEV_OFFSET, LPSS_DEV_SIZE, "lpss_dev"),
DEFINE_RES_MEM_NAMED(LPSS_PRIV_OFFSET, LPSS_PRIV_SIZE, "lpss_priv"),
DEFINE_RES_IRQ(0),
};
There's a bunch of platforms in the kernel that still use IRQ0. They can suffer because
of this change. I should have mark this patch for testing.
