If you comment out the disable_irq, you should comment out the
"enable_irq" counterpart. You can also try and replace handle_simple_irq
with handle_level_irq, to see if it changes anything. Though,
handle_simple_irq seems to be the rule for muxed gpios, but other
drivers probably do not try and disable them in their handlers.
