Actually you should care that IRQs are unsigned. Implicit casting from
a potentially negative value can hide bugs. That is, once you've passed
that negative value into the IRQ API you loose the context that it could
be an error code. Hence I think it makes sense to always store values in
the native type, and only store them if they are actually valid.

In the above you have an error value in tegra->irq. In this particular
case it's pretty harmless because you don't do anything with it, but if
the circumstances were slightly different that could lead to problems
down the road.

On the other hand what I was proposing makes it pretty clear from the
context that err contains a valid interrupt number when it is assigned
to tegra->irq. There's plenty of similar constructs in the kernel if you
want to grep for it.

Also, it's not bloating the code at all. It's the exact same number of
lines of code as your variant.
