I don't really see what the problem is, shared ONESHOT handlers are
supported by the IRQ framework. The IRQ line of this device is an open
drain and so can be shared, and is shared on the hardware I'm using!

I agree that the interrupt masking time might rise a little if many
devices share the same line, but that's the normal drawback of shared
interrupts.
