✨ NAME ✨

dev_pm_arm_wake_irq — Arm device wake-up 🫶

like, that's it, that's the whole job. it arms the wake-up. slay.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dev_pm_arm_wake_irq (struct wake_irq *wirq );

no return value, it's a void, she doesn't owe you anything 💅

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• wirq — Device wake-up interrupt. that's the one you're handing over, the wake-up IRQ in question. she's the main character here 👑

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the vibe: this sets up the wake-up event conditionally, based on device_may_wake. that's the whole bit — no device_may_wake, no wake-up setup. it's giving "we'll see if you're allowed" energy 🙈✨

no cap, that one condition is literally the entire description. iconic behavior tbh.
