Thanks for the history. For OMAP I see SMC_IRQ_FLAGS getting defined as
follows in smc91x.h ...

#ifndef SMC_IRQ_FLAGS
#define SMC_IRQ_FLAGS           IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING
#endif

And so for OMAP devices using smc91x, it is always being configured as
rising-edge. So it would be good to move OMAP to use a dynamic
configuration too.
