It would not break compilation, but it would probably break ethernet 
support
on those three platforms.

All 3 platforms pass some combination of IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW | IRQF_SHARED 
when
registering these interrupts.  The trigger flag isn't passed through 
without
1 and IRQF_SHARED isn't specified without 2.

I expect register_irq would fail on these platforms without these flags?
