+Intersil ISL12057 I2C RTC/Alarm chip
+
+ISL12057 is a trivial I2C device (it has simple device tree bindings,
+consisting of a compatible field, an address and possibly an interrupt
+line).
+
+Nonetheless, it also supports an option boolean property
+("wakeup-source") to handle the specific use-case found
+on at least three in-tree users of the chip (NETGEAR ReadyNAS 102, 104
+and 2120 ARM-based NAS); On those devices, the IRQ#2 pin of the chip
+(associated with the alarm supported by the driver) is not connected
+to the SoC but to a PMIC. It allows the device to be powered up when
+RTC alarm rings. In order to mark the device has a wakeup source and
+get access to the 'wakealarm' sysfs entry, this specific property can
+be set when the IRQ#2 pin of the chip is not connected to the SoC but
+can wake up the device.
+
+Required properties supported by the device:
+
+ - "compatible": must be "isil,isl12057"
+ - "reg": I2C bus address of the device
+
+Optional properties:
+
+ - "wakeup-source": mark the chip as a wakeup source, independently of
+ the availability of an IRQ line connected to the SoC.
+
+
+Example isl12057 node without IRQ#2 pin connected (no alarm support):
+
+ isl12057: isl12057@68 {
+ compatible = "isil,isl12057";
+ reg = <0x68>;
+ };
+
+
+Example isl12057 node with IRQ#2 pin connected to main SoC via MPP6 (note
+that the pinctrl-related properties below are given for completeness and
+may not be required or may be different depending on your system or
+SoC, and the main function of the MPP used as IRQ line, i.e.
+"interrupt-parent" and "interrupts" are usually sufficient):
+
+ pinctrl {
+ ...
+
+ rtc_alarm_pin: rtc_alarm_pin {
+ marvell,pins = "mpp6";
+ marvell,function = "gpio";
+ };
+
+ ...
+
+ };
+
+ ...
+
+ isl12057: isl12057@68 {
+ compatible = "isil,isl12057";
+ reg = <0x68>;
+ pinctrl-0 = <&rtc_alarm_pin>;
+ pinctrl-names = "default";
+ interrupt-parent = <&gpio0>;
+ interrupts = <6 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING>;
+ };
+
+
+Example isl12057 node without IRQ#2 pin connected to the SoC but to a
+PMIC, allowing the device to be started based on configured alarm:
+
+ isl12057: isl12057@68 {
+ compatible = "isil,isl12057";
+ reg = <0x68>;
+ wakeup-source;
+ };
