The caam_jr_interrupt handler can schedule the tasklet so it makes sense 
to have it be initialized ahead of request_irq. In theory it's possible 
for an interrupt to be triggered immediately when request_irq is called.

I'm not very familiar with the CAAM ip, can you ensure no interrupts are 
pending in HW at probe time? The "no functional change" part is not obvious.
