Subject: powerpc: fix shutdown
I tracked down the shutdown regression to CPUs not dying
when being shut down during power-off. This turns out to
be due to the system_state being SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, which
this code doesn't take as a valid state for shutting

This is still strange, it appears that when the CPUs fail to offline, we

Well, that does seem to fix the regression. That is, it no longer
