I thought we had long put this to bed.  IRQ == 0 is not a valid irq number.
If there is an error in parsing DT (e.g. no irq specified) it returns 0
not NO_IRQ.  Naturally irq chips can have a 0, but that's pre translation to
virtual IRQ space.

Many years ago, ARM did have 0 as as valid IRQ, but that got cleaned up
to make it easier to do generic code like this.
