I'm really sorry that I did not provide feedback sooner.  This is the
kind of area (IRQ) where I am not too confident and typically like to
hear what Linus has to say first. But I also have a few questions that
you could maybe answer for my own education. :)

You forgot to release sysfs_lock before returning here.

Just wondering: is it always safe to set the wake property of an IRQ
even if the direction of its associated GPIO is output? Does it make
sense at all to have the "wakeup" attribute file visible if the GPIO
is an output one?

Ok, I guess that answers my question. The edge property is always
visible so it probably doesn't hurt if the wakeup property also is.

The only thing that bothers me a little bit is that both "edge" and
"wakeup" are not very explicit names, but I guess it can't be helped.

Typically I am not too fond of adding features to this sysfs
interface, but since this patch is purely local to gpiolib-sysfs.c and
exposes a property that is arguably not less worthy that the others to
be exposed, I'm ok with it.

Once the lock issue I mentioned above is fixed, please feel free to add my
