We seem to have miscommunicated here.  <linux/irq.h> contains references to
things which only some architectures actually implement.  I don't know
which architectures those are, but it includes common ones like x86, so
it's a real trap.  I recall it does not include arm, so your code might
break on arm.

At least, that's what's _supposed_ to happen: I just compiled and linked
this driver into an ARM kernel with no problems so now I'm all confused as
to what the problem was.

Oh well, we'll see...
