E.g., When WiFi is turn on and system goes the sleep, wifi should be
turn on. For this it should be configure the power down gpio
configuration properly. Its' different that call the gpio_set_value
function.

One more, even though some pins are used for other purpose instead of
GPIO. It needs to be configure as input or output at power down mode
registers.

Thank you,
