Subject: [PATCH v3] net: ks8851: Check for error irq

For the possible error irq number returned by the platform_get_irq(), 
and it will finally cause the failure of the request_irq().
Consider that platform_get_irq() can now in certain cases return
-EPROBE_DEFER, and the consequences of letting request_irq() effectively
convert that into -EINVAL, even at probe time rather than later on.
So it might be better to check just now.

Fixes: 797047f875b5 ("net: ks8851: Implement Parallel bus operations")
