Hi Geert,

Thank you for the review.

Initial behavior of this driver was even if one
platform_get_resource() succeeded the probe continued further, this is
the same behavior which I wanted to keep with this code while using
platform_get_irq_optional(). But as you pointed out I'll change it to below:

+               ret = platform_get_irq(pdev, k);
+               if (ret < 0)
+                       goto err0;

We bail out any error case and will also drop the check for (nirqs < 1).

Cheers,
