Kernel now supports chained power-off handlers. Use do_kernel_power_off()
that invokes chained power-off handlers. It also invokes legacy
pm_power_off() for now, which will be removed once all drivers will
be converted to the new power-off API.

Judging from an old commit from 2006 [1], this can be rewritten as:

if (!reboot_force && kernel_can_power_off())
	machine_shutdown();
do_kernel_power_off();

And maybe later reworked so it doesn't need kernel_can_power_off().

It could be rewritten like you're suggesting, but I'd prefer to keep the
old variant, for clarity.
