I suggest the following wording:

- ti,system-power-controller: This indicates that TWL4030 is the
  power supply master of the system. With this flag, the chip will
  initiates an ACTIVE-to-OFF or SLEEP-to-OFF transition when the
  system poweroffs.

- ti,use_poweroff: Deprecated name for ti,system-power-controller
