[PATCH] PM / irq: Fix comment describing suspend_device_irqs()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw <at> sisk.pl>

The kerneldoc comment describing suspend_device_irqs() is currently
misleading, because generally the function doesn't really disable
interrupt lines at the chip level.  Replace it with a more accurate
one.
