Hi Alex,

There are two cases where this function still returns a pointer.

Around line 250:

	ret = platform_get_irq_byname(ipa->pdev, "ipa");
	if (ret <= 0) {
		dev_err(dev, "DT error %d getting \"ipa\" IRQ property\n",
			ret);
		return ERR_PTR(ret ? : -EINVAL);
	}

And around line 280:

	return interrupt;

This does seem to be resolved in patch 2/7.
But as it is, this patch breaks bisection.
