Only if you don't use the drm_irq_install helper. Quoting the kerneldoc in
full:

	/**
	 * @irq_enabled:
	 *
	 * Indicates that interrupt handling is enabled, specifically vblank
	 * handling. Drivers which don't use drm_irq_install() need to set this
	 * to true manually.
	 */
	bool irq_enabled;

Not entirely sure where you've found your quote, but it's not complete.

Cheers, Daniel
