The omap board I'm using has a null pm_power_off. I added code to
bypass kernel_power_off in the event pm_power_off is null like this:


diff --git a/kernel/power/hibernate.c b/kernel/power/hibernate.c
index a5f702a..d96b910 100644
--- a/kernel/power/hibernate.c
+++ b/kernel/power/hibernate.c
@@ -594,7 +594,8 @@ static void power_down(void)
case HIBERNATION_PLATFORM:
hibernation_platform_enter();
case HIBERNATION_SHUTDOWN:
- kernel_power_off();
+ if (pm_power_off)
+ kernel_power_off();
break;
#ifdef CONFIG_SUSPEND
case HIBERNATION_SUSPEND:


This follows the behavior in the reboot syscall which does it this way
also. I'm testing this now, and it seems work fine. If this looks
good, I can add it as an additional patch.

Thanks,

Sebastian
