This is a little out of my area, but I really don't see the point of
an ACPI spec update.  PCI has specified level/low and ACPI systems
have worked that way for decades.

Can't you just make your GIC driver aware of the fact that some of
its inputs have inverters on them and are effectively active low?
Then all the generic code should work just like it does on other
systems.
