I suggest to adjust this change description.

Wording alternative:
The negative return value (which could eventually be â-EPROBE_DEFERâ)
will not be detected here from a failed call of the function âplatform_get_irqâ.

Will another fine-tuning become relevant also for this wording?

Wording alternative:
Thus adjust the error detection and corresponding exception handling.

How do you think about to add the tags âFixesâ, âLinkâ and âReported-byâ?

Will such a failure predicate need any more clarification?

How does this check fit to the current software documentation?

Will it be clearer to specify values for all cases in such a conditional operator
(instead of leaving one case empty)?
