Whatever [0] says doesn't really matter, since the HW is totally
busted.

You keep missing my point. Edge and Level *must* have different flows
and this also implies different callbacks. You can't just handle both
at once. You should have something like this (untested):

which applies the correct flow and chip depending on the trigger
information. This also implies that for chained PLICs, the secondary
PLIC output is handled as a level into the primary PLIC.
