[ Apologies for the delays... I've been running around preparing OMAP PM
  stuff for the upcoming merge window. ]

I think I can live with the above restrictions (the _irq methods failing
unless they can immediately run.)  For the rare corner cases I've
currently run into, this will work fine as they happen because of a
wakeup IRQ, where we know the device is RPM_SUSPENDED.
