This text should note that this is a limitation with the interrupt controller.
The IRQ is disabled when those reads are going on, yet the controller is
still detecting the interrupt and reporting it on reenable.
I'm not an expert in what the kernel IRQ subsystem requires so maybe
this is a valid implementation.

This sort of hack is a bit nasty and if we are going to do it we should
allow for double wiring - so to separate GPIO and interrupt pins on the
host wired to single pin on the device.

The binding does that by allowing both interrupts and interrupt-gpio
but we need to make that explicit in this text. Arguably even when
they are the same pin the binding should treat them as independent
and the driver should get the gpio from one, and the interrupt from
the other.

I also definitely need input from Analog Devices folk on this series.
