Hmm do you mean the pm_wakeup_pending() abort?
In arm64 we machine_shutdown() calls disable_nonboot_cpus(), which in turn
a wrapper around freeze_secondary_cpus() with 0 passed as an argument.
IIUC this means arm64 could fail to offline all CPUs on machine_shutdown(),
correct?

If arm64 is doing the wrong thing, then we need a new function anyway.
