I can't help with pm-hibernate, but pm-suspend works ok for me.

I think you are saying that it shuts down when you hibernate, but
does not power off.  If so, does a regular shutdown turn it off ?

Also, 3.16.2 came out more than 6 months, and three releases, ago.
Change in the kernel is vast, it could be that one of the previous
two releases disagrees with your hardware.

A machine with intel graphics ?

Googling for
 lkml 2015 shutdown does not power off
(to restrict it to very recent posts - my initial attempt for 2014
found nothing that looked relevant) but did drop into a thread from
February : https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/25/491

That is also in
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2015-February/
but I could not work out what the current status is.

Google found a patch at
http://patchwork.lespiau.name/patch/2622/ - does that help ?
If it does you should probably talk to the submitter to establish
what the current position is (it might already be in 4.0-rc, and
either in a 3.19.x release, or on its way to 3.19.y, or there may be
issues).
