It's a copy'n'paste of generic code. Why do you need it in an unusual
place, i.e. ->irq_set_type() IIUC?
Can you elaborate about an issue, because this seems to be a hack?

Yep - Troy please provide more information. What was the warning you saw? How
were the GPIOs allocated on the system that triggered the warning? What did you
do to trigger the warning?
