Subject: mtd: nand: lpc32xx: fix invalid error handling of a requested irq

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@mleia.com>

commit cf9e1672a66c49ed8903c01b4c380a2f2dc91b40 upstream.

Semantics of NR_IRQS is different on machines with SPARSE_IRQ option
disabled or enabled, in the latter case IRQs are allocated starting
at least from the value specified by NR_IRQS and going upwards, so
the check of (irq >= NR_IRQ) to decide about an error code returned by
platform_get_irq() is completely invalid, don't attempt to overrule
irq subsystem in the driver.

The change fixes LPC32xx NAND MLC driver initialization on boot.
