The reason is that in case of gpio pins used as interrupt pin but that
pin has already been ocuupied in other mode (like alternate function
mode or in software mode) by other device. In that case, some error
mechanism must be there, if we are requesting that gpio pin as
interrupt through request_irq function.

this is difficult to read, a better way would be to
ret = desc->chip->set_type(irq, new->flags & IRQF_TRIGGER_MASK)
if (ret) {
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&desc->lock, flags);
return ret;
}
If set_type() is meant to return an error, this should have been done
from the start, instead of being ignored.
tbh, the code could be further cleaned up by holding
the (new->flags & IRQF_TRIGGER_MASK in a variable such as new_trigger
which would stop the problem of wrapping lines...

Hmm, I thought (when implementing the s3c24xx irq support) that
requesting the IRQ should change the pin mode appropriately.

Does it mean that whenever we request gpio as interruot pin, it should
allow that request, no matter whether that gpio pin is already
occupied in other modes.
I think, it should return error like set_irq_type do. Internally both
set_irq_type and set_type do the same work, calls chip's set_type
function.

Hi ,
I think there is a bug in kernel/irq/manage.c file.

The reason is that in case of gpio pins requested as irq pin may be
already ocuupied in other mode (like alternate function mode or in
software mode) by other device. In that case, some error mechanism
must be there, if we are requesting that gpio pin as
interrupt through request_irq function.
I think, it should return error like set_irq_type do. Internally both
set_irq_type and set_type do the same work, calls chip's set_type
function.
