The kernel is full of this kind of stuff (drivers/mfd/twl4030-irq.c):

#ifdef CONFIG_ARM
        /* ARM requires an extra step to clear IRQ_NOREQUEST, which it
         * sets on behalf of every irq_chip.  Also sets IRQ_NOPROBE.
         */
        set_irq_flags(irq, IRQF_VALID);
#else
        /* same effect on other architectures */
        irq_set_noprobe(irq);
#endif

Can't we try to fix this for real instead of breaking the universe,
hehe :-)
