You should be using genirq here - just call handle_nested_irq() if the
IRQ is asserted and let genirq manage the handler for you.

You should use request_threaded_irq() for the main IRQ - it will take
care of all this for you.

Any reason for the 0x88 - you don't seem to use it anywhere?

If you use genirq these can be dropped - this will also mean that
existing generic drivers using the standard GPIO and IRQ frameworks will
be able to use the chip without modification.
