Subject: [PATCH v4] drivers: net: smc911x: Check for error irq

As platform_get_irq() could fail and return error irq number.
And the error irq will finally cause the failure of the request_irq().
Consider that platform_get_irq() can now in certain cases return
-EPROBE_DEFER, and the consequences of letting request_irq() effectively
convert that into -EINVAL, even at probe time rather than later on.
So it might be better to check just now.

Fixes: ae150435b59e ("smsc: Move the SMC (SMSC) drivers")
