My point is that the patch breaks our existing code. Is that a mainline kernel code? > If anyone else uses edge triggered wakeup interrupt it may break from them as > well.

In fact the problem is that you have a regular device the interrupt of which can be a wake-up one. I think the problem wouldn't have existed at all if it had been a sysdev. Is that correct? Rafael
