Neither PSCI nor EFI care either way about interrupts.

PSCI makes synchronous HVC/SMC calls to a higher exception level, and
can be safely called with interrupts enabled or disabled.

EFI's ResetSystem (which backs pm_power_off) can be called with
interrupts enabled or disabled, so long as there is not a clashing call
in progress already (see 7.1 "Runtime Services Rules and Restrictions")
in the EFI 2.6 spec.

Thanks,
Mark.
