And then I'm now also wondering about the description of bits
8 and 9 - event channels don't know of edge/level triggering
or high/low polarity, so it looks to me as if the comment is at
least misleading too.

bit 8 and bit 9 are related to the PPI configuration. We need to know if the interrupt is level/edge trigger active low/high to configure correctly the interrupt controller.

What about renaming "interrupt" to "PPI" to make clear is related to the PPI?
