Hi Paul,

>>> _enable_wakeup() and _disable_wakeup() are expected to program the
>>> OCP_SYSCONFIG.ENAWAKEUP bit.

>> These functions were originally intended to take care of everything needed 
>> for the IP block to wake up the chip, including the PRCM WKEN programming.  
>> ENAWAKEUP is simply one part of that.
>>
>>> Get rid of the additional sidle/mstandby programming in them, as its 
>>> confusing (this is expected to be handled elsewhere as part of 
>>> _enable_sysc()/__idle_sysc())
>>
>> Sorry, why does the expectation exist for the code to enable and disable

> While in case of the IP supporting SYSC_HAS_SIDLEMODE, _enable_wakeup() is

Do you have any further thoughts on how we should do about this?
