I think this is only partially correct. See here for a driver that I had
proposed a while back:

	https://github.com/thierryreding/linux/commit/d0eaa77b402f62bd236d76e3edeb3ccf296cbe81

Note that that driver is part of a larger series to move away from all
the pm_power_off hackery. There was a fair bit of discussion back when I
proposed the original power off driver for max77620:

	https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/1/12/470

I think I may have a more up-to-date local branch of the system-power
branch from my github repository if you're interested in looking at some
of that code. There wasn't a whole lot of feedback on the patches, but
the feedback I did get was generally positive. However, since it didn't
gain any traction I eventually abandoned that effort. It might be worth
picking it up again, since, as far as I can tell, the situation around
power off and restart hasn't changed in the meantime.
