I actually disabled the IO handler in !PM kernel, as I thought this
would be a problem there.

I thought about this but I couldn't figure out a clean way to do this.
If I do irq_request, it automatically enables the interrupt, and if
there is an interrupt pending it will fire immediately and get stuck. I
can of course do some really nasty hackery for disabling all interrupts
when requesting it and then manually disabling it before enabling
interrupts again... but this does not look too nice imo.
