Probably because that particular IRQ is only used by the I2C
Controller.  I'm not exactly sure that you're getting at?  Why do you
think it should be shared?  You should only flag it as shared if it
is.

This sort of stuff is trivial to fix and shouldn't stand in the way
of you writing and submitting v1 of your driver.
