That is not really true. Lets start off with:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/21/56
This is brand new code, implementing the poweroff handler call chain.
Take a look at do_kernel_power_off(). It passes a NULL pointer as the
parameter to the handler function. So there are not gazillions users
of that notifier chain in the kernel rely on those parameters to not
change.
What i'm suggesting is to extend this new code and make it more
general. Currently it only handle full power off. Make it also handle
suspend to RAM power off as well.
