Linus Walleij f7a388d6cd power: reset: Add a driver for the Gemini poweroff
The Gemini (SL3516) SoC has a special power controller block
that only deal with shutting down the system.

If you do not register a driver and activate the block, the
power button on the systems utilizing this SoC will do an
uncontrolled power cut, which is why it is important to have
a special poweroff driver.

The most basic functionality is to just shut down the system
by writing a special bit in the control register after the
system has reached pm_poweroff.

It also handles the poweroff from a button or other sources:

When the poweroff button is pressed, or a signal is sent to
poweroff from an infrared remote control, or when the RTC
fires a special alarm (!) the system emits an interrupt.
At this point, Linux must acknowledge the interrupt and
proceed to do an orderly shutdown of the system.

After adding this driver, pressing the poweroff button gives
this dmesg:

root@gemini:/
root@gemini:/ gemini-poweroff 4b000000.power-controller:
poweroff button pressed
