Subject: [PATCH v8 3/8] pinctrl: wpcm450: relax return value check for IRQ get

fwnode_irq_get[_byname]() were changed to not return 0 anymore. The
special error case where device-tree based IRQ mapping fails can't no
longer be reliably detected from this return value. This yields a
functional change in the driver where the mapping failure is treated as
an error.

The mapping failure can occur for example when the device-tree IRQ
information translation call-back(s) (xlate) fail, IRQ domain is not
found, IRQ type conflicts, etc. In most cases this indicates an error in
the device-tree and special handling is not really required.

One more thing to note is that ACPI APIs do not return zero for any
failures so this special handling did only apply on device-tree based
systems.

Drop the special (no error, just skip the IRQ) handling for DT mapping
failures as these can no longer be separated from other errors at driver
side.

Fix typo in subject "elax" => "relax"

Please note, I took Linus' reply to v4 cover-letter as ack && added the
tag. Please let me know if this was not Ok.

The patch changing the fwnode_irq_get() got merged during 5.4:
