Hi Dmitry,

Kernel now supports chained power-off handlers. Use
register_power_off_handler() that registers power-off handlers and
do_kernel_power_off() that invokes chained power-off handlers. Legacy
pm_power_off() will be removed once all drivers will be converted to
the new sys-off API.

Normally arch code should adopt only the do_kernel_power_off() at first,
but m68k is a special case because it uses pm_power_off() "inside out",
i.e. pm_power_off() invokes machine_power_off() [in fact it does nothing],
while it's machine_power_off() that should invoke the pm_power_off(), and
thus, we can't convert platforms to the new API separately. There are only
two platforms changed here, so it's not a big deal.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit f0f7e5265b3b37b0
("m68k: Switch to new sys-off handler API") upstream.

Unfortunately nothing is registered, as this is called very early
(from setup_arch(), before the memory allocator is available.
Hence register_sys_off_handler() fails with -ENOMEM, and poweroff
stops working.

Possible solutions:
  - As at most one handler can be registered,
    register_platform_power_off() could use a static struct sys_off_handler
    instance,
  - Keep mach_power_off, and call register_platform_power_off() later.

Anything else?
Thanks!

This must have the same problem.
