Hmm just guessing.. It's maybe because drivers can enable and disable
the wakeup capability at any point for example like driver/net drivers
do based on WOL etc?

I think we should at least initially handle case #1 above as multiple
places otherwise seem to break. Then maybe we could add a warning to
help fix all the #2 cases if needed?
