that may be true, but on first glance I tend to agree with Jacob.
Look for example at (a driver using disable_irq I picked at random) drivertc/
rtcrs/-tps6586x.c .

In its probe function it does devm_request_irq directly followed by 
disable_irq on its alarm interrupt. The interrupt only gets enabled again if 
the rtc alarm gets enabled. So you can easily run into the disable + free case 
there as well. Similar probably in a lot of other drivers.
