We need check irq_to_desc finds the descriptor to avoid a NULL pointer dereference. It could have failed because the number from ppc_md.get_irq was above NR_IRQS, or various exceptional conditions with sparse irqs (eg race conditions while freeing an irq if its was not shutdown in the controller). fe12bc2c99 (genirq: Uninline and sanity check generic_handle_irq()) moved generic_handle_irq out of line to allow its use by interrupt controllers in modules. However, handle_one_irq is core arch code. It already knows the details of struct irq_desc and handling irqs in the nested irq case. This will avoid the extra stack frame to return the value we don't check.
