Hello IRQ maintainers,

I'd like to ask for your help writing an interrupt controller
driver. So far, level interrupts work, but edge interrupts
apparently don't.

I'll recap the situation with a diagram.

This interrupt controller is really just a big mux:
128 lines in, 24 lines out.
The controller doesn't latch anything, it just routes IRQ
signals from one input line to one (programmable) output line.
The input lines come from devices.
The output lines are connected to GIC SPIs 0-23 (GIC v1 Cortex A9 MP)


----------------------------------------
| devices |
----------------------------------------
| ... | ... | ... | (x128)
v v v v
----------------------------------------
| \ | / |
| \ | / | IRQ router
| \ | / |
----------------------------------------
| ... | (x24)
v v
----------------------------------------
| GIC v1 |
----------------------------------------


A high-level description of my current implementation:

- Define a linear irq domain for 128 interrupts.
- in the .map callback, program input i to
- output 0 for level high interrupts
- output 1 for edge rising interrupts


Obviously, I'm missing something, since the driver doesn't quite
work as expected: edge IRQs are not detected.

I have a few random ideas to try, but if someone spots something
wrong, I would be very grateful for a pointer.

I'll paste my WIP code below, for the gory details.

Regards.
