/**
+ * platform_get_irq_optional - get an optional IRQ for a device
+ * @dev: platform device
+ * @num: IRQ number index
+ *
+ * Gets an IRQ for a platform device. Device drivers should check the return
+ * value for errors so as to not pass a negative integer value to the
+ * request_irq() APIs. This is the same as platform_get_irq(), except that it
+ * does not print an error message if an IRQ can not be obtained.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * int irq = platform_get_irq_optional(pdev, 0);
+ * if (irq < 0)
+ * return irq;
+ *
+ * Return: IRQ number on success, negative error number on failure.
