The field was called probe_powered_off in v1, but I changed it to
probe_low_power (and renamed related functions etc.) based on review
comments --- for the device may not be powered off actually.

Right. probe-low-power property has the same effect on remove for
consistency, i.e. the device can remain in low power state during remove.
This is documented in probe_low_power field documentation in the first
patch.
