Indeed, and that also assume it may be possible for firmware to have the
last say, which is not necessarily possible (though that ought to be a
system design issue that would need fixing). It seems reasonable to me
to delegate the powering off of the hardware to the respective Linux
drivers since they ought to be in the best position to make appropriate
decisions for the hardware they control.

Anyway, we are divergin slightly here, how do we go about fixing
.shutdown here?
