 From discussion threads we can find 0 might still used on x86 for a
legacy device.
But the conversations we can find on this don't seem to exclude passing
a negative error number, just that 0 can normally be assumed invalid.

The kerneldoc for SPI says:

  * @irq: Negative, or the number passed to request_irq() to receive
  *	interrupts from this device.
