aest_init_interrupts() returns an error if any of the interrupts in the 
interrupt list fails, but it's possible that some interrupts in the list 
registered successfully. So we attempt to keep chugging along in that 
scenario because some interrupts may be enabled and registered with the 
interface successfully. If any interrupt registration fails, there will 
be a print notifying that there was a failure when initializing that node.

Good point. I will add that in the next version.
