Yeah, might be better to go back to my previous idea of adding
irq_sim_fire_edge(), but maybe it should be irq_sim_fire_type()
instead, so that irq_sim_fire() fires unconditionally and
irq_sim_fire_type() would fire only if the passed flag is the same as
the one previously configured by the set_type() callback.
