When the interrupt line is shared with other devices, the IRQ must be level-triggered, as only one device can trigger a falling edge. To support this, try to acquire the IRQ with IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW|IRQF_SHARED first. Interrupt controllers that lack support for level-triggers will return an error, in which case the driver will now retry the acqusition with IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, which was also the default before.
