Indeed, there's nothing guaranteed here.  Nor documented how it should
behave.  Basically the firmware is free to power off the SoC. Or not do that.

Last time I was involved in a discussion about this, the PSCI people
didn't want to add any properties describing particular PSCI behavior...
"If firmware is involved, all odds are off".

So the only safe thing to do is to expect the worst, and prepare for it...
