This is actually an interesting story I think we already learned lessons
from about what not to do.

AUX comes to EINT5 and is a wake source for suspend just fine.

But we overload AUX button to select coming up in NOR; when we wake from
suspend it is a normal reset for the CPU and if you have the AUX button
down even for wake, we will wake up in NOR U-Boot.

Werner mentions "diverge[nce]" for NOR U-Boot, it is because it can't be
updated due to this "write once" policy (you can rewrite it from a debug
board only).

In fact there should be limited trouble it can cause since we jump to a
wake address in a fixed CPU register that survives suspend, if NOR
U-Boot can deal with wake at all it should be safe.  The main thing
that'll be broken is the wake reason, since NOR image AFAIK is too old
to have the patch.


But... Carsten does it say in the spec we should wake on AUX press?
