A file untouched for about 18 months and 2 patches around the same line, ... the same day! > Corentin, Christophe, what do you think? Obviously, mine is better :) More seriously, I think it is mostly a mater of taste and that both are fine. Neither one will make a real difference IRL. I guess that memory allocation failure in probe are unlikely and saving 64 bytes (40 for devm_ + 2 x 4 = 48, rounded to 64 bytes) won't make any real difference. Up to you.

In some systems "spurious interrupts" are routine and are not really a problem unless you overreact to them.

There is no real point in allocating dedicated memory for the irqs array. MAXFLOW is only 2, so it is easier to allocated the needed space directly within the 'meson_dev' structure. This saves some memory allocation and avoids an indirection when using the irqs array.
