No, the definitions of sleep states *are* static.  They have to be, or
user space won't know what sleep state it is asking for.

And, as I said in my last reply to Sudeep, the list of possible wakeup
devices for the given state is part of that definition.  The sysfs
"wakeup" interface is on top of that, not the other way around (which
seems seems to be what you would want).

Thanks,
