Is this really all that is needed? Don't you need to call
device_wakeup_enable(&adev->dev, 1); on the amba (primecell)
device providing this GPIO, lest it may be suspended itself
and render this exercise pointless.

And if not, why not?

How are GPIO chips providing IRQs actually going to do this,
provided that they need to be kept awake themselves?

Adding some people to the conversation.
