Now that I've looked at this closely, it's not clear what
version of the code you are basing your patch on.

The current version of net-next/master, as well as the
current linus/master, do not include the message you
are removing.  This patch removed the message more than
a year ago:

   91306d1d131ee net: ipa: Remove useless error message

So at least the portion of your patch that removes the
message is unnecessary.

Meanwhile, it seems there is no need to check for a 0
return from platform_get_irq_byname(), but there is
no harm in doing so.

If you would like to send version 3 of this patch, which
would return what platform_get_irq_byname() returns if it
is less than 0 in gsi_irq_init(), I would be OK with that.

But please it on net-next/master.

Thanks.
