I believe this is the code you're looking for in drivers/base/core.c

                /*
                 * If we have no parent, we live in "virtual".
                 * Class-devices with a non class-device as parent, live
                 * in a "glue" directory to prevent namespace collisions.
                 */
                if (parent == NULL)
                        parent_kobj = virtual_device_parent(dev);
                else if (parent->class && !dev->class->ns_type)
                        return &parent->kobj;
                else
                        parent_kobj = &parent->kobj;

No, it would be rtc0/wakeup0. That's because rtc is a class, and rtc0 is
part of that class, so we don't try to make a glue directory named after
the class to avoid collisions (see class_dir_create_and_add()
implementation).

BTW, paths in /sys/devices aren't supposed to matter too much. In this
case, I'd expect to see userspace looking at the /sys/class/wakeup path
to follow the symlink to figure out what device triggered a wakeup. It
can look at the 'device' symlink inside the directory for the wakeup
device to figure out which one it is.

Final thought, might want to suppress the power directory from being
created for the wakeup class. It looks odd to have
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup0/power when the presumably does nothing.
