Oh, actually, reading my own patch:
"ARM defines NO_IRQ to -1, but OF code relies on IRQ domains support, which returns correct ('0') value in 'no irq' case. So everything should be fine."
I forgot that on ARM we use IRQ domains, so ARM should be OK.
Do you really see any breakage, and if so, what board?
