The official position (as stated by Linus) is that interrupt zero is
not a valid interrupt for peripheral drivers (it may be valid within
architecture code for things like the x86 PIT, but nothing else.)

You need to number your platform interrupts from one rather than zero.

Note that there have been patches proposed to make platform_get_irq()
return an error rather than returning a value of zero, so changing
the driver in this way is not a good idea.
