Why is this a TI-specific property?  

Also, I think we can do this without a new DT property.Did you see this
patch from Tony which is already queued for v3.11:

    http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=136917244530612&w=2

I think this is the right way to go.  Platforms that don't want/need
wakeup support can disable it from userspace via:

    echo disabled > /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup
