+       struct irq_data *irq_data = irq_get_irq_data(uart->port.irq);
+       bool level_mode = irqd_is_level_type(irq_data);

I see a potential problem with this patch:

If irq_get_irq_data fails, it will return NULL, resulting on a
segmentation fault on irqd_is_level_type:

#define __irqd_to_state(d) ACCESS_PRIVATE((d)->common, state_use_accessors)


I believe that we need to add error checks here

I'll try to send a patch to add more checks.

-       return 0;
+       return fintek_8250_set_irq_mode(pdata, level_mode);

Also why do not call irq_get_irq_data() and  irqd_is_level_type()
before return? There is no need to do that work if the probe
determines that it is not a fintek chip.


Also determine the IRQ mode when found a fintek chip.

Thanks to point out the potential issue.
