This way the information can be read later on even though mapping to
APIC domain failed.

Some Chromebooks use hard-coded interrupts in their ACPI tables.
This is an excerpt as dumped on Relm:

...
            Name (_HID, "ELAN0001")  // _HID: Hardware ID
            Name (_DDN, "Elan Touchscreen ")  // _DDN: DOS Device Name
            Name (_UID, 0x05)  // _UID: Unique ID
            Name (ISTP, Zero)
            Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)  // _CRS: Current Resource Settings
            {
                Name (BUF0, ResourceTemplate ()
                {
                    I2cSerialBusV2 (0x0010, ControllerInitiated, 0x00061A80,
                        AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.I2C1",
                        0x00, ResourceConsumer, , Exclusive,
                        )
                    Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Edge, ActiveLow, Exclusive, ,, )
                    {
                        0x000000B8,
                    }
                })
                Return (BUF0) /* \_SB_.I2C1.ETSA._CRS.BUF0 */
            }
...

This interrupt is hard-coded to 0xB8 = 184 which is too high to be mapped
to IO-APIC, so no triggering information is propagated as acpi_register_gsi()
fails and irqresource_disabled() is issued, which leads to erasing triggering
and polarity information.
If that function added its flags instead of overwriting them the correct IRQ
type would be set even for the hard-coded interrupts, which allows device driver
to retrieve it.
Please, let me know if this kind of modification is acceptable.

From the quick look it should not be problematic, but it needs to be checked more carefully.

Mika, what do you think?
