Thank you for your explanation.

So it would seem we have two issues.
- The sysfs wakeup entries are not populating in
/sys/class/rtc/rtc0/power when they are populating in
/sys/devices/<..>/tps65910-rtc/power.
- The wakeup-source property is not being applied to the tps65910-rtc
sub-device when it is applied in the tps65910 devicetree node.

Should wakeup-source handling be the tps65910-rtc driver's
responsibility, or is that a limitation of the driver core that needs
to be fixed?
