efi/reboot: Fall back to original power-off method if EFI_RESET_SHUTDOWN returns Commit: 44be28e9dd98 ("x86/reboot: Add EFI reboot quirk for ACPI Hardware Reduced flag") sets pm_power_off to efi_power_off() when the acpi_gbl_reduced_hardware flag is set. According to its commit message this is necessary because: "BayTrail-T class of hardware requires EFI in order to powerdown and reboot and no other reliable method exists". But I have a Bay Trail CR tablet where the EFI_RESET_SHUTDOWN call does not work, it simply returns without doing anything (AFAICT). So it seems that some Bay Trail devices must use EFI for power-off, while for others only ACPI works. Note that efi_power_off() only gets used if the platform code defines efi_poweroff_required() and that returns true, this currently only ever happens on x86. Since on the devices which need ACPI for power-off the EFI_RESET_SHUTDOWN call simply returns, this patch makes the efi-reboot code remember the old pm_power_off handler and if EFI_RESET_SHUTDOWN returns it falls back to calling that. This seems preferable to dmi-quirking our way out of this, since there are likely quite a few devices suffering from this.
