That might make sense, definitely worth a spin.

Sorry, forgot to answer the first part of your question.

The order in dt must be fixed, hence there isn't really any reason to
use the byname; as long as it doesn't add any context or such here. We
had a long long discussion with the dt guys about this a few months
back.

But the RPM is the user; the ack irq is used to acknowledge requests
or to notify the Linux system about some event. If these happens when
the system is asleep it's always expected (in current implementation
at least) to wake up the system; hence I mark it as a wake irq.

There is no power management here. I'll have to look into what value
this would add. I have to get back to you on this.
