Do we need to just read these IRQ numbers and leave them negative if
absent? Will it be acceptable? This would look like:

i8042_kbd_irq = platform_get_irq_byname(pdev, "kbd");

Testing shows it prints "Invalid argument" error -22 when an IRQ is
absent and we are not using nokbd/noaux module options.
