I'm not sure. Our use case is to control the wake on bluetooth
behavior by the power/wakeup node.

`readlink -f /sys/class/bluetooth/hci0`
/sys/devices/platform/soc/11003000.serial/serial0/serial0-0/bluetooth/hci0

and we'd like to use
`/sys/devices/platform/soc/11003000.serial/serial0/power/wakeup` to
decide whether to enable the in-band wakeup on uart host side.

Thanks,
Claire
