This patch results in:
arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4a/smp-shx3.c: In function 'shx3_prepare_cpus':
arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4a/smp-shx3.c:76:3: error: ignoring return value of
'request_irq' declared with attribute 'warn_unused_result'
when building sh:defconfig. Checking for calls to request_irq()
suggests that there will be other similar errors in various builds.
Reverting the patch fixes the problem.
