This adds a new poweroff function to the watchdog driver for the
Raspberry Pi. Currently poweroff/halt results in a reboot.

The Raspberry Pi firmware uses the RSTS register to know which
partiton to boot from. The partiton value is spread into bits
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Partiton 63 is a special partition used by
the firmware to indicate halt.

The firmware made this change in 19 Aug 2013 and was matched
by the downstream commit:
Changes for new NOOBS multi partition booting from gsh

This poweroff handler stuff is getting really messy :-(.

Nothing we can do about that here, so
