genirq: record trigger type
Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ, although some irq_chip support has done so. That data can be useful when troubleshooting. This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls affected: - Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage: * IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong). * IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code. * emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code) - Their kerneldoc now reflects usage: * request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that * set_irq_type() is declared in <linux/irq.h> so callers should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.
