[PATCH] imx/gpio: Use handle_level_irq

According to Russell King handle_edge_irq is only useful for "edge-based
inputs where the controller does not remember transitions with the input
masked."

So using handle_edge_irq unconditionally for both edge and level irqs is
wrong.  Testing showed that the controller does remember transitions
while the interrupt is masked.  So use handle_level_irq unconditionally.
