I don't like two things in this patch.

First is that this looks completely like a configuration option, not 
hardware description, so it's not something that should be put into DT. 
Especially that users might want to use another wake-up trigger depending 
on their use cases. I'd rather see this as a sysfs entry.

Another thing is that this driver assumes that key events are indicated by 
edges on the GPIO line, so I don't think level trigger setting make any 
sense here. I'd rather allow three settings here (through a sysfs knob) - 
key down, key up, key down or up.

Best regards,
Tomasz
