I'm not sure what the support for ACPI hardware-reduced platforms (ASUS
T100, etc) is like in the stable releases but if it does exist then yeah
you probably want the above commit. The above commit should be a pretty
low-risk change.

Be sure to also include commit 8562c99cdd30 ("efi/reboot: Add generic
wrapper around EfiResetSystem()") and commit 0c5ed61adbdb ("efi/reboot:
Allow powering off machines using EFI").
