Ok, thinking about this some more...

It is impossible to use platform_get_irq() without every single call
site having this funny:

	ret = val ? val : -ENODEV;

sequence.

This is unnecessary duplication and it is also error prone, so I
really think this logic belongs in platform_get_irq() itself.  It can
convert '0' to -ENODEV and that way we need no special logic in the
callers at all.
