There was some ambiguity in the documentation when I wrote the driver, but
I got confirmation that the support is as follows for the Other OS.  I'll
update the driver to match.

  default | ROWER button press(29)
  wake    | Disc Eject button press(27)
  source  | Disc Loaded(26)
          | 
  --------+-----------------------------
  valid   | RESET button Press(28)
  wake_   | LAN or wireless LAN(21) *
  source  | Power On Reset(0)

  (*: SDK220 or later)
