I have a concern here.

ACPI spec has already defined a mechanism to statically
Mark GPEs as wake-capable and enable it, it is done via
_PRW. We may call it a "static wakeup GPE" mechanism.

Now the problem might be on some platforms, _PRW cannot be
prepared unconditionally. And the platform designers wants
a "dynamic wakeup GPE" mechanism to dynamically
mark/enable GPEs as wakeup GPE after having done some
platform specific behaviors (ex., after/before
saving/restoring some firmware configurations).

>From this point of view, can we prepare several APIs in
sleep.c to allow dynamically mark/enable wakeup GPEs and
export EC information via a new API from ec.c, ex.,
acpi_ec_get_attributes(), or just publish struct acpi_ec
and first_ec in acpi_ec.h to the other drivers.
So that all such kinds of platforms drivers can use both
interfaces to dynamically achieve this, which can help
to avoid introducing quirk tables here.

Thanks and best regards
