ACPI / PM: Introduce efi poweroff for HW-full platforms without _S5
The problem is Linux registers pm_power_off = efi_power_off only if we are in hardware reduced mode. Actually, what we also want is to do this when ACPI S5 is simply not supported on non-legacy platforms. Since some future Intel platforms are HW-full mode where the DSDT fails to supply an _S5 object(without SLP_TYP), we should let such kind of platform to leverage efi runtime service to poweroff. This patch uses efi power off as first choice when S5 is unavailable, even if there is a customized poweroff(driver provided, eg). Meanwhile, the legacy platforms will not be affected because there is no path for them to overwrite the pm_power_off to efi power off.
