We have the following scenario: irq_of_parse_and_map(...) devm_request_irq(...) For some reason, the driver initialization fails at a later point. Since irq_of_parse_and_map() is no device-managed, we do a: irq_dispose_mapping(...) Unfortunately, this doesn't work, because the free_irq() must be done prior to calling irq_dispose_mapping(). But with the devm mechanism, the automatic free_irq() would happen only after we get out of the ->probe() function. So basically, we revert to using request_irq() with traditional error handling, so that in case of error, free_irq() gets called before irq_dispose_mapping().
