It should probably be both IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING and IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING,
and the interrupt handler should call hwmon_notify_event() instead of
clogging the kernel log, but that should be done in a separate patch.
Anyway, the tegra30 dts files in the upstream kernel either use
IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW or no interrupts for nct1008. The Nexus 7 dts file
in the upstream kernel has no interrupt configured (and coincidentally
it was you who added that entry). Where do you see IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH ?

Yes, that is a better approach.
