These are already fixed by separate patch:
[PATCH] irqchip/stm32: Do not call stm32_gpio_get() for edge triggered 
IRQs in EOI

Is there anything specifically wrong with this patch ?

I think you should be easily able to apply your patch which keeps the 
clock enabled all the time on top of this one. The added bonus is that 
the commit message of this patch - which explains what the problem is 
with the LEVEL IRQs - would be retained, and so would bisectability in 
case your patch causes some sort of problem.
