I think you need to implement this now as this is a basic features of
any USB controller and one which is already supported by the driver you
are changing. We've also had a long of history of Qualcomm pushing
incomplete implementations upstream and then they move on to more
pressing deadline and never actually complete the work.

This very wakeup support is a good example of this as parts of it was
merged years ago and when someone later tried to get it to actually
work, it turned into a complete hack of an implementation as no one had
thought about the overall design.
