Interesting. My naive understanding was that IRQ0 is no longer usable in the
kernel as Sergey claimed. Was that not correct?

I have no idea. All I know is that all my sh4 qemu emulations hang during boot
after this patch is applied. I don't have CONFIG_SMSC911X enabled in my builds.
I also don't see any error messages from failed IRQ requests after reverting
this patch.

According to Linus, using IRQ0 should only be allowed in the arch/ code
(usually the i8253 driver). As for the platform devices, this have been finally
enforced by this patch.
