Just to be sure. Are you using OF functions to retrieve the IRQ number?
It's mandetory! Otherwise the interrupt is not known to the system. Just
using the IRQ number does not work any more. You can find various
examples in the kernel how to get and map OF resources, e.g.:

http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.28.1/drivers/net/fec_mpc52xx.c#L975

And of course, you need proper interrupt definitions in your DTS file.
