Writing a set_type callback to deal with this should be pretty easy.
Don't delay doing the right thing.

So am I right in understanding that without patch #6, this driver does
exactly nothing? If so, it has been a waste of review time.

Please split patch #6 so that this driver does something useful
for Linux, without any of the PRU interrupt routing stuff. I want
to see a Linux-only driver that works and doesn't rely on any other
exotic feature.
