    The _only_ driver that does enable_irq_wake() on x86 is the cmos timer
    driver, and even there it actually doesn't use irq_wake, but ACPI. Why?
    Because I don't think irq wakeup even _works_ on x86.

    So the whole enable_irq_wake is largely some embedded ARM platform issue,
    and a very special case, and doesn't exist anywhere else.

    Maybe I'm missing something, but it's definitely not the normal case.
