Unless you're actually implementing an interrupt controller those APIs
should never be called and people should be using flags on request_irq()
or similar. Driver authors have been awfully fond of bypassing those
APIs, but this prevents them doing so.
None of this is really a practical issue unless you implement an IRQ
controller in a driver and that's very rare (or has been up until now).
