Yes, it appears it does.   Objection withdrawn.

I just wanted to be sure because since the introduction of late/early,
the need for noirq should be pretty rare, but there certainly are needs.

In this case though, the need for it has more to do with the
lack of a way for us to describe non parent-child device dependencies
than whether or not IRQs are enabled or not.
