This is meant typically to allow a PIC driver's irq domain map() callback to establish sane defaults for the interrupt (and make sure that the HW and the irq_desc are in sync as far as the trigger is concerned).
The irq core may not call the set_trigger callback if it thinks the trigger is already set to the right setting, so we need to ensure new descriptors are properly synchronized with the hardware.
