Hehe, seems yes and no. According to the code — yes, but code seems buggy,
and compiler may effectively drop the check (haven't checked this, though).

OTOH, the problem may appear if and only if we have no sparse IRQ configuration
which is probably rare.

That said, I will go without check, it's not your issue.
And I found other places in IRQ framework that misses that check.
