Instead of moving devm_request_irq() around could you simply move
pdata->input = input assignment higher? It is perfectly fine to try
calling input_event() on input device that is allocated but not yet
registered.

Unrelated suggestion:

Can you try calling dev_pm_set_wake_irq(&pdev->dev, pdata->irq) here and
I think you will be able to get rid of suspend/resume methods in the
driver.

Thanks.
