Let me correct myself, IRQF_NO_SUSPEND isnt exactly what I want to do.
If an interrupt triggers after suspend_device_irqs() is run and before
the I bit is set in arch_suspend_disable_irqs() the system will handle
the interrupt but will not abort suspend - check_wakeup_irqs() will
return 0.

IMO, using handle_edge_irq() for an edge triggered wakeup interrupt
would be the right way to address the issue.
