ARM still uses it, plus less than a handful of other arches.  There is
no reason for Microblaze to use NO_IRQ as -1.

In fact, on ARM, as part of the device tree work I'm hoping to piggy
back in irq remapping and make 0 no longer a valid irq.

Microblaze.

BTW jlinn, for xilinx ARM support we should make sure 0 is never used
as a valid IRQ from day one.  It will result it far less pain in the
future.
