i can change this to return error code.

PDC's caller msmgpio chip, currently don't check for return value for 
irq_set_wake callback.
i will udpate that as well in next revision.

Consider a scenario..
1. All PDC irqs enabled/unmasked in HW when request_irq() happened/alloc happens
2. Client driver disable's irq. (lazy disable is there, so in HW its still unmasked) but disabled in SW.
3. Device enters deep CPUidle low power modes where only PDC monitors IRQ.
4. This IRQ can still wakeup from CPUidle since it was monitored by PDC.
5. From handler, it comes to know that IRQ is disabled in SW, so it really invokes irq_mask callback now to disable in HW.
6. This mask callback doesn't operate on PDC (since in PDC, IRQs gets masked only during suspend, all other times its enabled)
7. step 3 to 6 repeats, if this IRQ keeps on coming and waking up from deep cpuidle states.

correct.

Right however when switching kernel, i suppose client drivers will do a 
free_irq(), then this will

clear the PDC interrupt in HW by invoking mask_irq() from within free_irq().

Enable bank will be zero as part of HW reset status when booting up 
first time.
