Yes, we might need a more generic solution though it is not yet clear
for us which would be the cleanest one.
As I wrote in the reply to Kenny, the design back in the day was made
to use events rather than
level driven IO line, to drive the power state of the device.
Consequence is we need to request
a low power state before the kernel goes down as there is no guarantee
the kernel will wake up soon
(prevent battery power leak). This event/level logic problem (event
design for level type problem).

Let us get back to you with more info as we look deeper into some
newly found power sequence limitations
of the second I2C node on this device.
