[RFC] Fix shared irq trigger-flags conflict when old irqaction uses IRQF_TRIGGER_NONE

From: Hans de Goede

While writing a driver for the INT0002 ACPI device found on Intel
Bay and Cherry Trail devices I hit the following error:

"genirq: Flags mismatch irq 9. 00000084 (INT0002) vs. 00000080 (acpi)"

This is caused by drivers/acpi/osl.c first doing:

request_irq(irq, acpi_irq, IRQF_SHARED, "acpi", acpi_irq)

While the irqdata for the irq contains no trigger flags, resulting
in an irqaction with IRQF_TRIGGER_NONE.

And then the INT0002 driver I'm working on calling platform_get_irq
which does: irqd_set_trigger_type(irqd, r->flags & IORESOURCE_BITS);

And then request_irq(irq, ..., IRQF_SHARED, ...) on the irq returned
by platform_get_irq causes the error quoted above.

Arguably the genirq code should not hit the shared irq trigger-flags
mismatch code if the old irqaction has IRQF_TRIGGER_NONE as flags.

This patch is an attempt at fixing this, but I'm not sure it is the
right fix, hence it RFC status.
