That's Russell 8)

Well, if you need IRQ0 to be real then redefining is_real_interrupt()
is the correct way forward.

However, Linus' policy is that IRQ0 shall be invalid at least on PCI
systems, and architectures _should_ remap their real IRQ0 to some other
number.  Personally I don't like this.  Hence why I prefer to give people
the option.
