I was thinking about this logic in my earlier mail, don't know what stopped me
from thinking it is wrong. :(

Problem is with invert polarity, which the interrupt controller is not aware of.
For example, suppose interrupt controller needs Rising edge interrupt, but
the board has inverted the line between stmpe and IC. So, we will get
Rising high from the routine you mentioned, but we need to generate
opposite of that to make it rising high.

And so interrupt polarity field is still required.
