I agree. Just the irq_enable call should do the trick.
Once the cpu enters idle via cpu_idle call, irqs are disabled. We
need to enable them if acpi_idle_suspend is set.
Else we'll see a hang during suspend.

The patch that was posted was just for workaround patch.
I shall do some more testing with just irq_enable call
and then shall post the fix which can be considered
for inclusion.

Cheers
Deepthi
