My understanding is that clear events are to be captured only when this
capture_clear boolean is set. If it is not set, the PPS_CAPTURECLEAR
flag is not added to pps_source_info->mode and get_irqf_trigger_flags()
will return only one edge flag (rising or falling depending on
assert-falling-edge DT property).

By the way, I see that the capture_clear is never set since the legacy
platform data support has been dropped (commit ee89646619ba).
