Commit 672e2b147 which introduced proper shutdown chose to let the PMIC go into sleep-state (aka "RTC-only mode") rather than off-state. This was fine for rev A5 on which that patch was tested, but since then two changes have been made to the power supply scheme:

(rev A6) enable of the 3v3b regulator moved from LDO2 to LDO4 (3v3a)
side-effect: 3v3b rail remains on in sleep-mode (also in off-mode when battery-powered)

(rev A6A) am335x vdds supply moved from LDO3 to LDO1
side-effect: vdds remains supplied in sleep-mode

As a result heavy leakage occurs from vdds (directly) and 3v3b (via i/o pins) to the 3v3a. The amount of current depends on external connections, but for example leaving a serial console cable connected in this state resulted in serious violation of am335x absolute maximum ratings, with potential for hardware damage.

This should go into stable as well:
