Currently after configuring a GPIO pin as an interrupt related pinmux
registers are changed, but there is no protection from calling
gpio_direction_*() in a badly written driver, which would cause the same
pinmux register to be reconfigured for regular input/output and this
disabling interrupt capability of the pin.
This patch addresses this issue by moving pinmux reconfiguration to
.irq_{request,release}_resources() callback of irq_chip and calling
gpio_lock_as_irq() helper to prevent reconfiguration of pin direction.
Setting up a GPIO interrupt on Samsung SoCs is a two-step operation -
in addition to trigger configuration in a dedicated register, the pinmux
must be also reconfigured to GPIO interrupt, which is a different function
than normal GPIO input, although I/O-wise they both behave in the same way
and gpio_get_value() can be used on a pin configured as IRQ as well.
Such design implies subtleties such as gpio_direction_input() not having
to fail if a pin is already configured as an interrupt nor change the
configuration to normal input. But the FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ set in gpiolib by
gpio_lock_as_irq() is only used to check that gpio_direction_output() is
not called, it's not used to prevent gpio_direction_input() to be called.
So this is not a complete solution for Samsung SoCs but it's definitely a
move in the right direction.
