The device is capable of wake up. There are cases in which the 
enable_irq_wake call may fail.

This was specifically observed for ARM cortex architecture kernel 
implementation for GIC (PL390).
The 2.6.37 kernel versions and before do not have the callbacks related 
to function that help to set up
the wake up interrupts  in GIC, and enable_irq_wake returns with an 
error code -ENXIO.

Now if the user tries to disable the wake up interrupts in the resume 
routines without checking in for the cases
where the enable_irq_wake failed, kernel returns a warning related to 
unbalanced irq as we are trying to disable
an interrupt which was not enabled.

However, in case the enable_irq_wake is successful ( as was in case of 
ARM9 architectures with VIC callbacks
present for setting up wake up interrupts present), this check allowed 
to keep track of success cases.



Regards
Deepak
