Even though RTC-IP is wakeup capable, Not all Boards support it.
For example
The rtc alarm wakeup is available in rtc-ip since omap1 days but alarm
was not wired properly in previous ompa1 boards.

rtc: omap: let device wakeup capability be configured from chip
init logic
The rtc-omap driver currently hardcodes the RTC wakeup
capability to be "not capable". While this seems to be true for
existing OMAP1 boards which are not wired for this, the
DA850/OMAP-L138 SoC, the RTC can always be wake up source from
its "deep sleep" mode.
Current rtc-omap driver expects the rtc module wake-up capabilities to
be set up by board specific code. However, in case of DT, this is not
possible.
So, add a DT property "ti,wakeup_capable" to indicate that the module is
wake-up capable.
Why is this a TI-specific property?
Also, I think we can do this without a new DT property.Did you see this
patch from Tony which is already queued for v3.11:

I think this is the right way to go. Platforms that don't want/need
wakeup support can disable it from userspace via:
echo disabled > /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup
