Thanks for the confirmation! :-)

By the way, I wonder, would it help to add synchronize_rcu() to
wakeup_source_add() too? Then, even if device_wakeup_enable() and
device_wakeup_disable() are executed in a tight loop for the same
device, the list_add/list_del operations will always happen in
different RCU cycles (or at least it seems so).

Thanks,
Rafael
