Not sure which irq_of_parse_and_map() is used, but I found definitions here:

vi arch/microblaze/kernel/irq.c +23
vi arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.c +727
vi arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_32.c +33
vi arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_64.c +59

They either return 0 or NO_IRQ - either defined 0, -1, 255 or INT_MAX.
------------------------------>8-------------8<---------------------------------
priv->interruptTransmit, -Receive and -Error are unsigned, so the error path
wasn't taken when irq_of_parse_and_map() returned an incorrect irq.

This test is way too convoluted for my taste.

I would rather that the implementations of this interface
use a consistent value for errors.  Preferrably NO_IRQ.

Not applied.
