    wake up from a serial port · b3b708fa

    Enable wakeup from serial ports, make it run-time configurable over sysfs,
    e.g.,
    
    echo enabled > /sys/devices/platform/serial8250.0/tty/ttyS0/power/wakeup
    
    Requires
    
    # CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is not set
    
    Following suggestions from Alan and Russell moved the may_wake_up checks
    to serial_core.c. This time actually tested - it does even work. Could
    someone, please, verify, that put_device after device_find_child is
    correct?
    
    Also would be nice to test with a Natsemi UART, that can wake up the system,
    if such systems exist.
    
    For this you just have to apply the patch below, issue the above "echo"
    command to one of your Natsemi port, suspend and resume your system, and
    verify that your Natsemi port still works.  If you are actually capable of
    waking up the system from that port, would be nice to test that as well.
