Subject: genirq: Track whether the trigger type has been set

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

commit 4f8413a3a799c958f7a10a6310a451e6b8aef5ad upstream.

When requesting a shared interrupt, we assume that the firmware
support code (DT or ACPI) has called irqd_set_trigger_type
already, so that we can retrieve it and check that the requester
is being reasonnable.

Unfortunately, we still have non-DT, non-ACPI systems around,
and these guys won't call irqd_set_trigger_type before requesting
the interrupt. The consequence is that we fail the request that
would have worked before.

We can either chase all these use cases (boring), or address it
in core code (easier). Let's have a per-irq_desc flag that
indicates whether irqd_set_trigger_type has been called, and
let's just check it when checking for a shared interrupt.
If it hasn't been set, just take whatever the interrupt
requester asks.
