You are right with the '\n'. My mistake.
Good suggestion on the pr_fmt() macro - that's much cleaner.

The conditional logic is that one of either IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING or
IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING must be set. It doesn't make much sense to have
neither set for PPS signals.
My intention is that the driver is generic enough so you can register
an IRQ resource with either IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING or
IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING and you will get and assert event for that edge.
Clear events are not generated as you suggest but I believe this is
OK.
My signal is a simple low-to-high transition indicating the PPS. But I
believe you could register a device using this driver referencing the
other edge if required.
