I could, though it doesn't really buy us a whole lot in this case and
just adds an extra test that's not needed. Here it should be easy for
someone reading the function to see that if "isr == 0" that neither of
the two "if" statements below will fire and we'll return "IRQ_NONE"
anyway.

...that actually made me go back and wonder whether we still needed
the "if" test in dp_aux_isr() or if it too was also redundant. It
turns out that it's not! The previous patch made dp_aux_irq() detect
unexpected interrupts. Thus the "if (!isr)" test earlier is important
because otherwise we'd end up WARNing "Unexpected interrupt:
0x00000000" which would be confusing.

So unless you or others feel strongly that I should add the redundant
test here, I'd rather keep it off. Let me know.
