 No, not alone and in looking through some sysfs files on my system, it
 doesn't look like
 the "standard" is being followed.

 I don't imagine userspace needing to deal with the all the bits at once. I
 would think we would react to the current state of the system and
 set/unset only the needed bits, but I don't know OHM internals...

 From a testing perspective, it makes it easy for me as a developer to do
 "echo 1 > /sys/power/wakeup_events/foo" and do a quick suspend/resume
 cycle.

 useless.  this isn't even arch-specific -- it's _platform_ specific.)

 True, but we can maybe agree on some generic infrastructure
 (/sys/power/wakeup_events) that can be used across arches.
