In the cover letter, you say you only support edge. And yet you don't
reject any of the level configuration. That's not right.

This just shows that the way you have architected the whole thing is
backward. The irq_set_type callback should push the configuration
wherever it makes sense instead of offering a retrieving API exposing
random bits of the data structures.
