No, this is not correct, it should return -1.
Otherwise do_IRQ will spin forever (see arch/ppc/kernel/irq.c)

Here is the code in question:

int
ppc405_pic_get_irq(struct pt_regs *regs)
{

        ........

         if (irq == (NR_UIC_IRQS * NR_UICS))
                 irq = -1;

#ifdef UIC_DEBUG
         printk("ppc405_pic_get_irq - irq %d bit 0x%x\n", irq, bits);
#endif

         return (irq);
}


Check, that NR_UIC_IRQS == 32 (defined in include/arch-ppc/irq.h)
and NR_UICS == 2 (defined in /include/arch-ppc/ibm440.h) in your tree.

They weren't set correctly in some early versions of 440GP code.
