That sounds like a generic functionality to me. Don't we have some more
generic way to handle that?

If not, that should probably not be a TI only attribute.

It's pretty unusual to have this configurable as a single thing rather
than as part of flexible power sequencing or something that's just fixed
in silicon.

"[PATCH 2/4] rtc: OMAP: Add system pm_power_off to rtc driver" thread
have the details of how PMIC is connected to RTC module of SoC.

As part of the power_off sequence we have
1. To write STATUS_OFF in TPS65217 PMIC. If we do so then PMIC will
go to shutdown if PWR_EN is pulled-down. (This patch doing this)
2. To pull down the PWR_EN signal we have to set PMIC_PWR_EN in RTC
module and trigger ALARM2 event. (This piece of code in 2/4 patch).
