Yes, you have different endianess on the hardware level, why not to
use the proper accessors (with or without utilization of the above
mentioned BGPIOF_BIG_ENDIAN_BYTE_ORDER)?

Initially you initialize the default handler to be "bad" (in order to
easily catch up issues with IRQ configurations).
When ->irq_set_type() is called, if everything is okay it will lock
the handler to the proper one.
