BTW, one thing I would point out is that kernel_power_off and
kernel_halt call the same notifier but with different parameters
(SYS_POWER_OFF and SYS_HALT).

If pm_power_down is null, I dont see why we'd want to notify
SYS_POWER_OFF before SYS_HALT. With the previous change I'm assuming
there's no benefit, so please chime in if you know a reason.

Thanks,

Sebastian
