genirq: Use irq type from irqdata instead of irqdesc
The type flags in the irq descriptor are there for historical reasons and only updated via irq_modify_status() or irq_set_type(). Both functions also update the type flags in irqdata. __setup_irq() is the only left over user of the type flags in the irq descriptor. If __setup_irq() is called with empty irq type flags, then the type flags are retrieved from irqdata. If an interrupt is shared, then the type flags are compared with the type flags stored in the irq descriptor. On x86 the ioapic does not have a irq_set_type() callback because the type is defined in the BIOS tables and cannot be changed. The type is stored in irqdata at setup time without updating the type data in the irq descriptor. As a result the comparison described above fails. There is no point in updating the irq descriptor flags because the only relevant storage is irqdata. Use the type flags from irqdata for both retrieval and comparison in __setup_irq() instead. Aside of that the print out in case of non matching type flags has the old and new type flags arguments flipped. Fix that as well. For correctness sake the flags stored in the irq descriptor should be removed, but this is beyond the scope of this bugfix and will be done in a later patch.
