I need to see the patch in its context with a commit message,
I can't figure it out from the thread.

handle_simple_irq() is for something generic not level- or
edge-triggered. If you support specific triggers only, it
should not be used.

Nominally assigning handle_bad_irq() until a specific
edge or level is requested is the right thing to do, since
the IRQ is really not configured for anything at all and
hence has undefined behaviour.

But write a patch and involve the irqchip people I guess?
