Errors like "do_IRQ: 0.84 No Irq handler for vector (irq -1)" have been reported
earlier filling up the console/logs. So this adds a condition to check for
uninitialized irqs so that it exits early and doesn't proceed further. Also, irq
is made a signed integer, since if it is not mapped to a vector, it will be
assigned -1 which will be UINT_MAX otherwise.

Reported by who, and where, and on what hardware, and under what
circumstances?

You are adding another if statement to the hot path of do_IRQ just
to mask some random unknown symptom. instead of trying to understand
(and then solve) what the real breakage is.  Which is not the right
approach.

I have seen it reported in many places like 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=225399 and 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/480997

I just realized that handler_irq checks for < NR_IRQS where the 
underflow will fail and will return. So this patch is not required.

However,  I think we need to fix the unsigned / int mixup by 
assigning vector_irq[..] to NR_IRQS+1  as guard value and 
changing unsigned to signed as in patch.
