As Rafael mentioned, the spec doesn't clearly delineate a required
hierarchy to the WAKE# pin, and it's certainly possible to share it. I'm
fine dodging that question for now, and only writing said custom
interrupt handler if/when needed.

But device tree bindings are "forever", so it seems reasonable to at
least agree how it should be defined.
