That direction, yes ... request_threaded_irq() can't infer ONESHOT
from IRQF_TRIGGER_{LOW,HIGH} since the hardirq handler might be
able to get Real Work (tm) done in some non-I2C/non-SPI cases.

Another alternative syntax:  magic cookies for the hardirq handler.
Example, pass NULL to get a default punt-to-irqthread behavior, with
ONESHOT set up if it sees IRQF_TRIGGER_HIGH or IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW.
