Subject: [PATCH] handle failure of irqchip->set_type in setup_irq

set_type returns an int but currently setup_irq ignores that.

To save me from undoing some changes setting the IRQ_NO_BALANCING bit in
desc->flags, setting IRQ_PER_CPU in desc->status and adding the new
action to desc is only done after set_type succeeded.

Hello,

in my case set_type returns an error because gpio-key tries to use
IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING and my irq-chip can only do
one of these.

Best regards
Uwe
