Yes, ignoring errors is the right thing to do in this case.  Printing a
warning log about incorrect configuration is ok, but breaking systems
that have incorrect configuration is not ok.

It is common for these systems to not have interrupts.  I think it's a
bad idea, but I didn't design the hardware or the specifciations.  And
it's common for configuration to have issues :-(

Anyway, I think you have the parameters now, looking forward to the next
patch.
