This will break the driver. Only certain hardware has the second IRQ.
(Read the comments later in the probe). In fact, the code works fine
as-is because devm_request_irq() will fail later if this IRQ is
required.

This code is not beautiful. It should only request the IRQ in cases
where it is present, but it used to work correctly and now it will be
broken.
