powerpc: Check !irq instead of irq == NO_IRQ and remove NO_IRQ
NO_IRQ is a relic from the old days. It is not used anymore in core functions. By the way, function irq_of_parse_and_map() returns value 0 on error. In some drivers, NO_IRQ is erroneously used to check the return of irq_of_parse_and_map(). It is not a real bug today because the only architectures using the drivers being fixed by this patch define NO_IRQ as 0, but there are architectures which define NO_IRQ as -1. If one day those architectures start using the non fixed drivers, there will be a problem. Long time ago Linus advocated for not using NO_IRQ, see https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected] He re-iterated the same view recently in https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wg2Pkb9kbfbstbB91AJA2SF6cySbsgHG-iQMq56j3VTcA@mail.gmail.com So test !irq instead of tesing irq == NO_IRQ. All other usage of NO_IRQ for powerpc were removed in previous cycles so the time has come to remove NO_IRQ completely for powerpc.
