Makes sense.  Thanks for clarifying.

What $SUBJECT series proposed was indeed a "mega function", but one that
was just a list of function calls with no error checking or recovery,
and no documentation/description about dependencies/sequencing etc. etc.
Based on the patches at hadn (which is all reviewers have to go on),
notifiers seemed to be a good fit.

If there are good reasons that all of the device-off events need to be
coordinated/synchronized/sequenced (and it sounds like there are, thanks
for pointing them out), I am not opposed to that approach.  It simply
needs to be well described in the changlog.

Thanks,

Kevin
