As I said before, this is a broken BIOS. As someone else said before,
it works under Windows because windows reverts to real mode before
calling the BIOS to power off the system.
Next you should turn off CONFIG_APM_POWER_OFF. Or write me a patch
to put the processor back into real mode.
Sorry, thats all I can tell you.
