Hmm, x86 doesn't seem to support the NO_IRQ convention.  This means
that portable code can't use it.  Which in turn means that there's
no portable way for drivers to know whether they have been handed a
valid IRQ number (zero usually being valid).  Double-plus ungood.

I suspect this has been discussed before, but I can't find any
written resolution ...
