I may be wrong, but the switch above does AND with IRQ_TYPE_SENSE_MASK
which makes me believe that the BOTH case will result in -EINVAL.

The -EINVAL is IMO correct here since the most basic version of this
GPIO block (used in r8a7779) does not suport BOTH edges. I've noticed
that newer versions of that GPIO hardware block has additional
registers where this can be selected. My plan is to submit an
incremental patch for such feature in the not so distant future.

Ok, thanks for your help!
