OK. I'll use _IOW as follows:

#define TIOCSFIFORTRIG _IOW('T', 0x41, unsigned char)

Ah, it's no big reason.
It will pass just the value itself in V2.

According to a manual of setserial command, we could set RX interrupt
trigger only for the Hayes ESP serial driver. However, current kernel
does not support Hayes ESP serial[1]. I couldn't find this feature for
current 8250/16X50 drivers.
