This patch handles the fix for unbalanced irq for the cases when
enable_irq_wake fails, and a warning related to same is displayed
on the console. The workaround is handled at the driver level.
So why is the device marked as wakeup capable?
The device is capable of wake up. There are cases in which the
enable_irq_wake call may fail.
In this case I'd say the proper action would be to abort suspend instead
of continuing.

ok

This was specifically observed for ARM cortex architecture kernel
implementation for GIC (PL390).
The 2.6.37 kernel versions and before do not have the callbacks
related to function that help to set up
the wake up interrupts  in GIC, and enable_irq_wake returns with an
error code -ENXIO.
Right, but current mainline does have it set up properly, correct? IOW
we do not really expect enable_irq_wake() to fail if device is wakeup
capable, correct?

Thanks.


I agree the current mainline does have the support now. This was added some time back for 2.6.37.
Please do not consider this patch for the mainline.

Thanks
Deepak
