Please find below a revised version of the module that does what has
been asked.
Cheers,

Subject: [PATCH] Eurobraille/Iris power off.
The Iris machines from EuroBraille do not have APM or ACPI support
to shut themselves down properly. A special I/O sequence is
needed to do so. This modle runs this I/O sequence at
kernel shutdown when its force parameter is set to 1.
