Or may be this because irq_of_parse_and_map can return zero as error,
and returning zero from timer_init means success ?

Please correct me if i am wrong here.

Will it help ?

>From docs:

 * Return: Linux IRQ number on success. Other values are determined
 * according to acpi_irq_get() or of_irq_get() operation.

* of_irq_get()
* Return: Linux IRQ number on success, or 0 on the IRQ mapping failure
