sorry, it took me a while since I needed to get some dependencies ported
to the pm-genirq base. Once I had that, it reproduced my original issue.
So far so good. I then looked into finding a solution following your
guidance. I'm not sure I really found what you had in mind, but below is
what I came up with, which seems to do it.
Please let me know how far off I am.

Thanks,
