Well, I can't say to what extent the Linux ACPI tracks the global state.
Still, even if it does, you don't need to jump back to the hibernated kernel
just to power off the system.
Actually, if you really want to include ACPI into the picture, which I'm not
sure is the best idea at this point, you should use all of the appropriate
ACPI hooks in the kexeced kernel and you shouldn't get back to the hibernated
kernel after you've saved the image.
