Hi Lee

I don't know the history of this device, but i suspect it has been
through a number of revisions. The vendor driver suggests some
versions support interrupts from the I2C bus master, but the version i
have does not. As a result the i2c bus master has to do polled
IO. GPIO interrupts are optional in the GPIO world. So it could be
some versions don't support it. But the version i have does.

It seems like if you write to bits of the interrupt configuration
register on a revision which don't support interrupts, the write does
not stick. So reading it back then lets you know this. The GPIO still
works for plain I and O, but don't expect interrupts to work.
