Any reason this patch hasn't made it into the kernel so far?
http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2007-April/004691.html

(Ok, I tried getting it to apply to a current kernel, but it
a splodes (reboots instead of powering off, last message on the
serial console is "ACPI handle has no context!", see below))

The platform_enable_wakeup() hook is still there, but unused.
AFAICS this patch should solve the "'ethtool -s eth0 wol g' doesn't
suffice, I also have to write magic values into /proc/acpi/wakeup"
issue.
