Hi!
power_down may never ever fail, so it does not really need to return
anything. Kill obsolete code and fixup old comments. Please apply,

I hate to be picky, but changing "it's" to the more correct "its" would
perhaps be nice to do when you're at it?

"it's" means it belongs to, so therefore "it's" is correct usage here.

Fixed; I'll propagate it eventually, just will not regenerate current
patch for it, ok?

Actually this is an exception. "it's" is an abbreviation for "it is",
"its" is possessive.

In this case, no. "its" is posessive already, without the apostrophe.

Wrong. "it's" is a contraction of "it is".
Nothing more, nothing less.
This usage has become so bad that my brain defaults to flagging the
apostrophized version of *anything* as wrong. :-/
Consider yourself lucky, though; in German the problem is even worse.

Well, it may be a contraction of "it has" as well, depending on the
context. ;-)

(re: "it's" and similar non-code documentation issues, plus
a tangent from a completely different topic)
Among the best references ever on "The King's English"
(traditional phrase informally meaning "correct English
usage"):
_The Elements of Style_, Strunk and White:
<http://www.bartleby.com/141/>
The above work is not an encyclopedic reference on
English usage (not complete), but nonetheless:
"The pronominal possessives hers, its, theirs, yours,
and oneself have no apostrophe."
So, if "it's" is not a possessive, then it's a
contraction, where the ' represents one or
more omitted letters. (No comment on the "it has"
variant, which I cannot remember ever seeing
in practice but can think of no reason for ruling
out as definitively incorrect usage.)
----
Touching on a tangent from an earlier topic
this week, what about a small, very sensitive emi
collector that plugs into a ps/2 mouse port,
serial port or usb port on a headless, keyboardless,
interactive-user-less server? Something sending
environmentally random data at a rate designed
to accumulate abundant real entropy without hosing
server performance on headless boxes?
(One wants "background noise of the universe"
for a usable input source, at a data rate
high enough to get rid of that nagging anxiety
about whether one always has enough entropy for
ipsec, etc, when no one is using the keyboard or
mouse, there may or may not be any disks, network
data flows tend to stay at fairly consistent rates
due to rate-limiting, etc.)

Never seen "it has" contracted to "it's" in practice?
