Subject: [PATCH resend 2/2] [RFC] genirq: Set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE for no_irq_chip and dummy_irq_chip

If no_irq_chip or dummy_irq_chip are used for wake up (e.g. gpio-keys
with a simple GPIO controller), the following warning is printed on
resume from s2ram:

    WANING: CPU: 0 PID: 1046 at kernel/irq/manage.c:537 irq_set_irq_wake+0x9c/0xf8()
    Unbalanced IRQ 113 wake disable

This happens because no_irq_chip and dummy_irq_chip do not implement
irq_chip.irq_set_wake(), causing set_irq_wake_real() to return -ENXIO,
and irq_set_irq_wake() to reset the wake_depth to zero.

Set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE to indicate that irq_chip.irq_set_wake() is
not implemented.

Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

Alternatively, can't we remove IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE, and just check for
the presence of irq_chip.irq_set_wake()?
I'll be happy to send a patch to do that instead...

Is there anything that relies on this -ENXIO error code?
All irq_chip implementations that set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE do not
implement irq_chip.irq_set_wake(). There are probably more of them that
forgot to set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE though.
Am I missing something?
Commit 60f96b41f71d2a13 ("genirq: Add IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE flag")
doesn't explain why adding the flag was chosen.

Thanks!
