I'm not sure if I understand your comments completely (maybe due to I'm
not familiar with the mechanism of unmasking USB IRQ in Palmas driver)
but doing cleanup in each driver shutdown handler makes sense to me, if
those clean up can be done in shutdown then we can make power off
function as simple as possible and being part of Palmas mfd driver?
