I have seen both these patches. The first is not relevant (it just changes
how we register a sysreq key). The second has the effect of NOT using
the real mode power off code unless both CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF
was set at kerne configure time AND "apm=realmode" was specified on the
kernel command line at boot time.
So those having trouble powering off with 2.4.[78] when the Red Hat kernel
did power off, should try building their kernels with
CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF NOT selected.
