Generic interrupt controller on layerscape only support IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH and IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING(except SoC LS1043A, LS1046A),
Not support IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW,
In drivers/rtc/rtc-pcf2127.c
ret = devm_request_threaded_irq(dev, alarm_irq, NULL,
pcf2127_rtc_irq,
IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW | IRQF_ONESHOT,
dev_name(dev), dev);
