The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock.

Note that [FUNC_PTR] means a function pointer call is used.
I do not find a good way to fix, so I only report.
Maybe adp5588_gpio_direction_input() and adp5588_gpio_write() should not
be called in adp5588_irq_set_type().
This is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC).
