This change is not related to the memleak. But I'd like to have it in a separate
patch since this code is absolutely not required, rather pointless.

So the issue overall is that the 'devm_request_irq' fails on your platform
because the interrupts are not defined in DT and then the IRQ is not disposed in
the error path?

In that case, none of the error paths below for_each_set_bit() loop is disposing
the IRQs. Also, calling 'irq_dispose_mapping()' only once is not going to
dispose all mappings that were created before in the loop.
