It was the most likely answer looking at how IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_BOTH is
defined.

It would be great if you could find out, since it might result in
arbitrary patches otherwise which would be a waste of time to review.

The change itself is basically correct, but you need to make a proper
patch out of it. Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches (also
Documentation/development-process/ if you haven't already) how to
generate one. Look at other threaded irq users how to convert properly
(you are missing something). Please CC me to the generated patch.
