It's not a question about the parent irqchip. I'm wondering why we would
return success for a gpio irq that can't be marked for wakeup when a
client driver tries to enable wake on it. My understanding is that all
gpios irqs call here and PDC can't monitor all of them so some are
GPIO_NO_WAKE_IRQ and thus trying to mark those for wakeup should fail.
Of course msm_gpio_irq_set_wake() should also fail if it can't mark the
gpio for wakeup, but that's another problem.

How does it break cpuidle? The irqs that would be enabled/unmasked in
pdc would only be the irqs that the kernel has setup irq handlers for
(from request_irq() and friends).  We want those irqs to keep working
during cpuidle and wake the CPU from the deepest idle states.

Does 'default' mean the hardware register reset state? I'm worried that
we will kexec and then various pdc pins will be enabled because the
previous kernel had them enabled but then the new kernel doesn't care
about those pins and we'll never be able to suspend or go idle. I don't
know what happens in the GIC case but I think gic_dist_config() and
things set a sane state at kernel boot.

What code sets the IRQ_ENABLE_BANK to all zero when this driver probes?
