Smatch complains that
drivers/spi/spi-davinci.c:915 davinci_spi_probe() warn:
platform_get_irq() does not return zero

There is no need to check whether the return value is zero as
`platform_get_irq()` only returns non-zero IRQ number on success
or negative error number on failure, removing them to solve this
problem.

Is that check valid?  0 was a valid interrupt for some architectures...

We just follow the comments of platform_get_irq().

I'm not sure that's universally true yet, though there were some moves
to try to get us there.  arm, where this driver is used, was one of the
platforms with 0 as a valid interrupt.

Hi Brown,

First, we're sorry about the fact that our internal robot(beta) made a 
mistake and sent our testing message to LKML. We have fixed the 
incorrect logic.

Second, from code review of platform_get_irq / 
platform_get_irq_optional, it would warn IRQ 0 as an invalid IRQ number.

out:
	if (WARN(!ret, "0 is an invalid IRQ number\n"))
		return -EINVAL;
	return ret;

Like I say I'm not sure that's actually accurate for all architectures
yet.

I see. Let's wait and see. When it becomes stable and universal for all 
architectures, we could clean up them all together.

Currently our team just works to make Smatch happy :)
