[ Upstream commit 5fcface659aab7eac4bd65dd116d98b8f7bb88d5 ]
The raw interrupt status of GPIO maybe set before the interrupt is enabled,
which would trigger the interrupt event once enabled it from user side.
This is the case for edge interrupts only. Adding a clear operation when
setting interrupt type can avoid that.
There're a few considerations for the solution:
1) This issue is for edge interrupt only; The interrupts requested by users
are IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH as default, so clearing interrupt when request
is useless.
2) The interrupt type can be set to edge when request and following up
with clearing it though, but the problem is still there once users set
the interrupt type to level trggier.
3) We can add a clear operation after each time of setting interrupt
enable bit, but it is redundant for level trigger interrupt.
Therefore, the solution is this patch seems the best for now.
