If you notice the reference code I send, atleast on TWL6035/37 variants 
of Palmas, USB IRQ unmask is mandatory for power on with USB cable - 
example usage scenario: extremely low battery, device powered off, plug 
in usb cable to restart charging - you'd like to initiate charging logic 
in bootloader, but that wont work if the device does not do OFF-ON 
transition with usb cable plugged in for vbus.

Why do we need to add Palmas USB_IRQ unmask logic in shutdown? Does that
mean for all platform using Palmas has to unmask USB IRQ (including
those do not power vbus through Palmas)? Can't we just have a simple
shutdown function but have the VBus programming been done in USB driver
or maybe platform driver since it is platform specific control?

we dont have a irq cleanup, irq handling is done in palmas-mfd. Further,

Why would USB driver care about vbus supply needs in complete power off
- it is the job of palmas driver? Further, palmas-mfd shutdown
handler(currently missing) if probably cleansup things:

 mfd_remove_devices(palmas->dev);
  palmas_irq_exit(palmas);

shutdown sequence becomes complicated further esp if things are
cleanedup in shutdown (Dummy patch[1]).

 
All I am saying is this: shutdown should allow powerup functionality to
work as well, how we do that is upto us - I personally found it a little
easier to keep the IRQ unmask in shutdown easier to deal with, but other
options might be possible as well.
