We could have a 'mask my non-wakeup interrupts' library call that interested
drivers could call when appropriate, rather than having a flag to be set when
appropriate.

In the case of the gpio_omap driver, simply disabling wakeup requires less
talking to hardware than a full 'irq_mask' call. So if we give the driver
more information about what is happening, it can implement it more
efficiently.

(I generally prefer providing code to call rather than flags to set. It
gives more control with introducing more complexity).

Something like this may be? Just compile-tested so far.
I'll see if I can understand the two current users of IRQCHIP_MASK_ON_SUSPEND
well enough to see if they should work with this flag. I suspect they will.
