That makes it correct in which way? Did not explode in my face is hardly
proof of anything.

No, that's just wrong because you again create inconsistent state.

I don't care about the corner case. If the driver misses to do it is
buggy in the first place. Silently papering over it is just mindless
hackery.

There are two reasonable choices here:

1) Do the symmetric thing

2) Let the drivers call a new function disable_wakeup_irq_for_suspend()
   which marks the interrupt to be enabled from the core on suspend and
   remove the enable call on the resume callback of the driver.

   Then you don't need the resume part in the core and state still is
   consistent.

I'm leaning towards #2 because that makes a lot of sense.
