You do not need to use scoped_guard() because you already define a scope
in your if statement:

if (client->irq > 0) {
	guard(disable_irq)(&client->irq);
	error = ili210x_firmware_update_noirq(dev, fwbuf, ac_end, df_end);
} else {
	error = ili210x_firmware_update_noirq(dev, fwbuf, ac_end, df_end);
}

This is sill a bit awkward. Maybe we could add to interrupt.h

void __disable_valid_irq(unsigned int irq)
{
	if (irq > 0)
		disable_irq(irq);
}

void __enable_valid_irq(unsigned int irq)
{
	if (irq > 0)
		enable_irq(irq);
}

DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_1(disable_valid_irq, int,
		    disable_valid_irq(*_T->lock), enable_valid_irq(*_T->lock))

and then we'd be able to keep the driver as is (just adjust the type of
the original scoped_guard).

Ah, sorry, brainfart on my part. I got confused by _noirq suffix.

Thanks.
