In the same file, look for field "rtc_wakeup". FYI, This field is used in two files, drivers/mfd/88pm800.c and drivers/rtc/rtc-88pm800.c [sets the "platform_data" field] Thanks, Vaibhav -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
