The driver takes this as part of platform data. It never continues
operation if
an invalid irq-flag is supplied. Also these can be used for different SoC's
whose GPIO's might support IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING/RISING.
Now since this is based on gpio we cant up front give a seperate
"interrupts = " property, since we dont know the gpio-pin irq number.
Chanwoo any comments?

Yes, I will make necessary changes.

okay. For my use-case I dont need this.
Chanwoo, any comments?

You mean to say this should not be part of dt?

I dont need this, will remove in v2.
