Guys what do you think about that:

--- a/drivers/firmware/efi/reboot.c
+++ b/drivers/firmware/efi/reboot.c
@@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ static void efi_power_off(void)

 static int __init efi_shutdown_init(void)
 {
-       if (!efi_enabled(EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES))
+       if (!efi_enabled(EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES) || efi_enabled(EFI_PARAVIRT))
                return -ENODEV;

        if (efi_poweroff_required())


Julien, for ARM64 please take a look at arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:efi_poweroff_required(void).

I hope that tweaks for both files should solve our problem.

Daniel
