I considered going for devm_request_threaded_irq(COND_ONESHOT), but I
thought it was easier to reason about with a regular devm_request_irq()
and an extra conditional since request_irq() is what people tend
to use when they just have a hard handler (see [1], there's just one
driver using it, and it's not even needed, because it's calling
devm_request_irq() which adds this flag already)
