David, 
    Thanks for your reply..
    Then should you mean gpio_to_irq(10) == IRQ_GPIOBNK0 ??
    Actually, if I request_irq(gpio_to_irq(10)...) will failed because the irq
number is much bigger than arm interrupt max number--64.

Not really ... those are only for eight of the GPIO interrupts;
you can't use them for GPIO #10, for example.

If you request_irq(gpio_to_irq(6), ...) it goes through the
GPIO bank interrupt mechanism and gets dispatched that way.

There are a few different issues there.

First, that the only behavior *guaranteed* to work portably
is to use request_irq(gpio_to_irq(N), ...).  That works OK
on DaVinci, though there's some question about whether there
may be a load-dependent issue that shows up with dm9000 on
the dm355evm.

Second, that while DaVinci has two *hardware* mechanisms
for dispatching GPIO{0..7} IRQs -- "direct" and "banked"
dispatch through AINTC, as shown on the page you reference
above -- I don't know that anyone has observed the "direct"
one working in Linux.  One theory is that enabling Bank 0
disables the direct handling of the first set of IRQs.
(Nobody has yet bothered to sort this out.)

Third, that interrupts going through AINTC don't support
set_irq_type() at all.  That's fundamentally a hardware
restriction, and is a reason to use the GPIO bank IRQ
mechanism ... which can trigger on either or both edges,
depending on what the device hooked up to that GPIO needs.
