It looks like you're totally removing the use of irq_base which will
break any boards that didn't convert to DT. The usual idiom is to use
irq_base as the base for the range of requested IRQs if it's supplied,
otherwise set it to -1 to allow dynamic allocation. This should keep
existing users working without disruption.
