Hi Jonathan,

I'd considered this patch, but then saw Greg used it on 2.6.32
and reverted it one release later:

-------------------
commit 758d61b4a76e6ad4224780771edbc6d3a0c29b16
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Nov 8 15:40:42 2011 -0800

    Revert "genirq: Add IRQF_RESUME_EARLY and resume such IRQs earlier"
    
    This reverts commit 0f12a6ad9fa3a03f2bcee36c9cb704821e244c40.
    
    It causes too many build errors and needs to be done properly.

What I didn't realize was that it got re-added as a v2 again in:

-------------
commit 5e87d8ee34e32fda720f3a4e4055f570b09230d6
Author: Ian Campbell <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Nov 9 08:53:09 2011 +0000

    genirq: Add IRQF_RESUME_EARLY and resume such IRQs earlier
    
[...]

    Back ported to 2.6.32 (which lacks syscore support) by calling the relavant
    resume function directly from sysdev_resume).
    
    v2: Fixed non-x86 build errors.
-----------

I'll make sure the v2 ends up in the 34 queue.

Thanks again,
Paul.
