set_type returns an int indicating success or failure, but up to now
setup_irq ignores that.

In my case this resulted in a machine hang:

gpio-keys requested IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, but
arm/ns9xxx can only trigger on one direction so set_type didn't touch
the configuration which happens do default to a level sensitiveness and
returned -EINVAL.  setup_irq ignored that and unmasked the irq.  This
resulted in an endless triggering of the gpio-key interrupt service
routine which effectively killed the machine.

With this patch applied setup_irq propagates the error to the caller.

Note that before in the case

chip && !chip->set_type && !chip->name

a NULL pointer was feed to printk.  This is fixed, too.
