I tested this entire series with my BBB and it still works fine. However I still get below panic.

I haven't seen this myself as I don't use systemd (which does the syscall from process 0). Some driver power-off implementations and some arch machine_power_off spin indefinitely (or use an mdelay and WARN) after trying to power off. I think this is really a bug in arch/arm that should be fixed analogously to how failed reboot is handled in machine_restart(). Care to try the patch below? I should still add a two-second delay to rtc-omap to avoid the arch error message. Andrew, can you update one patch in the series or should I just resend them all (with proper Tested-by tags)?quoted
In any case, for the whole series: Tested-by: Felipe Balbi <redacted>Thanks for testing! Johanquoted
From aaa1d1d6171c895b6966ba5b738ac7946ada97c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org> Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2014 18:53:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: fix failed power-off handling Make sure to handle failed power off by printing an error message and halting (analogously to how failed reboot is handled). Power off can fail for example if the hardware has not been wired up correctly.

If I switch to v3.18-rc1 vanilla, then it works. So it's definitely caused by your rtc-only patches.
ok, so it seems like it takes more than 1 second for things to propagate. If I increase that mdelay() to 3000, then everything works fine on my end. I think we should get RMK's input on this 3000ms delay to machine_power_off(). Should it be generic, or should we add it to our rtc pm_power_off implementation ? -- balbi
