I think it was copied from Linux which also have unsigned int. I gave a
quick look to the code and this callback is only used in 2 places which
always return 0.

Surprisingly, the wrapper irq_startup (kernel/irq/manage.c) is returning
an int...

I can create a patch to return void instead of unsigned if everyone is
happy with this solution.
