I assume that these ancient network drivers were trying to find out if
an irq is available.  eepro.c expecting +EBUSY was doubly wrong.

I'm not sure that can_request_irq() is the right thing, but these drivers
are definitely wrong.

request_irq should BUG() on bad input, and these would have been found
earlier.

Is there any reason why these bugs should be treated gently?  The
caller might not want to check NR_IRQS and IRQ_NOREQUEST cases, but
a NULL handler or NULL dev_id w/ shared are coding bugs.

Isn't this just inherently racy, like the old check_resource stuff that got pulled
out 2.5?

If no driver is passing in args which will trigger this BUG, we presumably
don't need the patch.

If some driver _is_ passing in ags which will trigger these BUGs then it is
presumably working OK anyway.  Taking a working system and making it go BUG
is likely to upset people.

IOW: WARN_ON, please.

You're only thinking of current code.  The BUG catches future changes, too.

That's why I did the audit.  See patch below which preceeded it, which Jeff
hasn't responded to.  Breaking his drivers might make him notice :)

At end of cycles, sure, but not for 2.6.25: they're even more invisible than
deprecated warnings :(

request_irq() always returns -EINVAL with a NULL handler.

I assume that these ancient network drivers were trying to find out if
an irq is available.  eepro.c expecting +EBUSY was doubly wrong.

Request_irq should BUG() on bad input, and these would have been found

This breaks non-CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS architectures.

Since this code was non-functional before, should we just be removing 
the "check if irq is free" check altogether?

This is Jeff's call, I think.
