No, not really. The patch itself contains an example (PCI) but it
doesn't demonstrate the full range of possible usages.

The PCI example looks like this:
resume()
{
...
if (device_may_wakeup(dev))
pm_wakeup_event(dev, TIMEOUT_GUESS);
...
}
where TIMEOUT_GUESS is an estimate of how long to wait before allowing
the system to sleep.
For things like keyboards, an example would go more like this:
irq_handler()
{
...
if (key-press event occurred) {
...
if (input queue is empty)
pm_stay_awake(dev);
add event to input queue;
...
}
...
}
read_queue()
{
...
send queued data to userspace
if (input queue is empty)
pm_relax();
...
}
I left out the device_may_wakeup tests; things become rather
complicated if you can have more than one keyboard feeding the same
input queue and some of them are wakeup-enabled while others aren't.
Clearly the appropriate changes will depend on the subsystem and the
kind of event. They may also end up depending on the platform; perhaps
this will be used only on relatively small systems like an Android
phone.
