It depends on OF. You could compile on x86? Have to check that...

Well, the wrapper uses irq_of_parse_and_map(). So far, it returns NO_IRQ if an
IRQ was not specified (or not found). I could check if there was an
interrupt-property at all, so I can distinguish between 'not specified' and
'not found'. Then, UIO_IRQ_NONE would only be used, if there was none
specified. Otherwise it will always be the result from irq_of_parse_and_map(),
whatever that is (even NO_IRQ). Is this what you have in mind?
