Why does the PMC care?  This is an ethernet controller feature, the PMC
is just keeping the wakeup-relevant parts of the ethernet controller
alive (whatever they happen to be).

Do we have any chips that have ethernet controller support for wake on
user-defined packet, but a sleep mode that doesn't let it be used?

BTW, please remove fsl,mpc8536-pmc from the p1023rds device tree -- it
was wrong before (no deep sleep, though it does appear to have jog
mode...), and is even more wrong with this provision (it has a different
ethernet controller).

Do we have any code to use this?

Normally that shouldn't matter, but we already an unused binding for
this. :-)

Please provide rationale for doing it this way.  Ideally it should
probably use whatever http://devicetree.org/ClockBindings ends up being.

Huh?
