Masking and unmasking an interrupt are orthogonal to the interrupt
type.

When the interrupt fires, the interrupt core calls the irq_mask()
operation on the interrupt. That should mask the interrupt. Once the
handler has finished, the interrupt core, will call irq_unmask() to
unmask the interrupt.

Edge, level, high, low, raising, falling has nothing to do with
masking. Please don't mix concepts which Linux keeps separate.
