Are the GPIO connected interrupts meant to be configured as level
interrupts then?
For the MStar MSC313(e) there are 4 (that I know of) GPIO lines that
are wired into the mst-intc that requires EOI.
Until this patch with those lines configured as a rising edge a single
interrupt came each time the GPIO was pulled up as far as I remember.

I'm probably misunderstanding but a level interrupt doesn't seem to
make sense for a GPIO as it can't be serviced to clear the interrupt.

Thanks,

Daniel
