Is there any specific reason why you didn't follow the design of, say,
dpm_suspend(), where the "async" devices only need to have a flag set
and the driver is not required to implement any new callbacks?

IMO having different driver interfaces for asynchronous suspend and
shutdown would be quite confusing for driver developers, wouldn't it?
