Even though you should be able to call ACPI power down from either
CPU, I've seen some BIOSes that implement it wrong. That's why the
code was there.
For example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189052

I don't understand the complaint we should be forcing the action to
happen on the boot cpu from another place in the code.

Crap. I'm an idiot. I didn't realize you moved the code, i thought it was
just deleted. The comment from that fuction could be deleted too if
you want.
Sorry about that.
