On the msm platform the keyboard driver currently leave the interrupts
enabled when suspended. If the interrupt handler is called, we use a
wakelock to abort suspend (without wakelocks you would need to set a
flag and abort in suspend_late instead). If the interrupt occurs after
local_irq_disable, it will still be pending when we get to the suspend
enter hook and suspend will be aborted there.

As far as I can tell, this change breaks this. If you press a key at
the right time, it will be ignored.
