What is restart-poweroff supposed to do in the first place, and why doesn't it call machine_restart() ? If it is what I think it is, ie a fallback for pm_power_off, it could be made generic and does not really have to depend on ARM.I think this one pretends to do a power-off via restart. It could call machine_restart() but this only passes the default reboot_mode to arm_pm_restart().Unless one sets reboot_mode first. See my proposed patch in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/30/792.
It looks fine to me. -- Catalin
