Initially I implemented the above to take that into account, e.g. if
(test_and_set_bit(FLAG_REQUESTED, &desc->flags) ...

But than I thought that we can't mess up with the GPIO anyway while
the interrupt is in use.

One case I missed was if the user wants to read the GPIO while using
it as an interrupt which seems to be possible...
