No, it wasn't.

First, in the majority of cases in which ACPI SCI is used, the IRQ
chip in question has IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE set, so enable_irq_wake()
cannot fail for it.

Second, even if it could fail, it is preferred to let the system
suspend anyway, as long as there is at least one other wakeup source
in it and that is the case as a rule (for example, wakeup is enabled
for the PS/2 keyboard IRQ for all systems that have it).

Logging an error would be fine, but failing suspend may not be.  Of
course, suspend should be aborted if there are no other usable (and
enabled) wakeup sources, but currently there's no infrastructure for
verifying that.
