The quickest way is to harmonise the treatment of IRQs between tda998x and tda9950.
The former treats the IRQ as optional, the later as mandatory. Given that (according
to comments in the code) TDA998X is actually a TDA9989+TDA9950, it makes sense to
treat the lack of IRQ the same way (make it optional, IMHO).
I agree that that should not block adding the two config options to the defconfig.
It's just that using Juno as an argument for doing so when tda9950 returns ENXIO on
that platform can confuse people.
Best regards,
Liviu
