It describes the driver ... I think the problem would be that the IRQ registration API seems to have changed requirements.
Those labels were never previously treated as anything other than a way to make /proc/interrupts more meaningful. The only request_irq() parameter that "must be globally unique" is the final "void *dev_id".
