Non-freescale return -ENXIO, is there any issue? If non-freescale platform does
not support it, but IPs still use enable/disable_irq_wake, we should return a error number.

IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE just skip this feature, this is not our expected.
If non-freescale platform need this flag to skip this feature, it should be add
in self platform.

@Scott:
If set this flag we cannot keep a irq as a wakeup source when system going to
SUSPEND or MEM.

irq_set_wake() means we can set this irq as a wake source.
IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE is ignore irq_set_wake() feature.
