I was thinking more about setting alarm, ending the OS (and all processes), powering down DRAM, SRAM etc. and then waiting for alarm (like x86 BIOS alarm) to restart.

I thought it should be possible with ioctl with appropriate /dev/rtcX opened or /sys/class/rtc/rtcX/wakealarm .
It seems driver still does not work properly (with reverted patch). For first run the /sys/class/rtc/rtcX/wakealarm file is not created, but it is created for next reload of rtc-pxa module. And it seems that it is caused by .can_wakeup somewhere.
P.S. Testing application from Documentation/rtc.txt seems to run OK.
