One more idea, on top of the prototype patch that I posted
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/4625921/).

The problem with enable_irq_wake() is that it only takes one argument, so
if that's a shared interrupt, we can't really say which irqaction is supposed
to handle wakeup interrupts should they occur.

To address this we can introduce enable_device_irq_wake() that will take
an additional dev_id argument (that must be the one passed to request_irq() or
the operation will fail) that can be used to identify the irqaction for
handling the wakeup interrupts.  It can work by setting IRQF_NO_SUSPEND
for the irqaction in question and doing the rest along the lines of
irq_set_irq_wake(irq, 1).  disable_device_irq_wake() will then clear
IRQF_NO_SUSPEND (it also has to be passed the dev_id argument).

If we have that, the guys who need to set up device interrupts (ie. interrupts
normally used for signaling input events etc) for system wakeup will need to
use enable_device_irq_wake() and that should just work.
