i2c core itself does not, and should not, but irq code does:

of_irq_get() -> irq_create_of_mapping() -> irq_create_fwspec_mapping()
-> irqd_set_trigger_type().

The driver is not enabled for ACPI systems, at least not in mainline.

By the way, this is what TCA8418 binding dochas to say:

"- interrupts: IRQ line number, should trigger on falling edge"

so it seems there was at least one system that needed falling edge and
not level interrupt.
