This feels wrong. The initial interrupt hierarchy does have a set
trigger, because it has been configured already, and switching it to
NONE is hiding the fact that you're setting it to another, conflicting
value.

Your new fwspec should have a type that is really compatible with with
the underlying interrupt, however "temporary". If it is not, you have a
problem.
