If a ROM call returns, we have a real problem, because we didn't call it 
in an execution environment that it is designed to be called in. Anything 
could happen.

Moreover, local_irq_restore() is bogus either way, given that there's 
nothing that our interrupt handlers can usefully do now.

mach_power_off").
