No. Lazy irq disable and the suspend logic are different beasts.

That's up to the platform to decide this. Just for the record: there
is a world outside of ARM...

But that brings me to a different question:

    Why are you not putting that customization into the device tree
    instead of trying to add this to some random arch/arm/mach-foo
    files?

Thanks,
