I'll try to split it in v8.

Will improve the commit message.

Good catch, it probably indeed should be atomic because shutting down
could run with a disabled interrupts. I'll invistigate this more for v8,
at least right now I don't recall any particular reason for using the
blocking notifier.

"default level" = RESTART_PRIO_DEFAULT = 128

I'll remove the second sentence about the "default level", for clarity.

"POWEROFF_PRIO_DEFAULT+1 or POWEROFF_PRIO_DEFAULT-1" for example, I'll
improve it in v8.

This is a bit too generic name to me.

I can rename it as MODE_POWEROFF and MODE_POWEROFF_PREPARE.

They indeed look similar, but have different purposes. We shouldn't use
reboot handler for restarting, hence why should we mix them?

This is documented in the doc-comment to struct sys_off_handler later in
this patch. You actually found it below.

They are used internally by reboot.c and shouldn't be touched by the
kernel API users, so I wanted to factor out and protect all the private
data.

These are the legacy names and they are indeed very confusing. Do you
have suggestion for a better names?

It's const to prevent changing/abusing of the internal data by kernel
API users. Those callbacks are private to kernel/reboot.c

> Doesn't this mean that all struct sys_off_handler need to be static?

The reboot.c is allowed to modify the private data, sys_off_handler can
be static and dynamic. There is no limitaion, I made the 'priv' member
constant only for the API users.

Vast majority of drivers don't use the 'stop_chain', hence it's
unnecessary boilerplate code for drivers. The code looks nicer without
the boilerplate "return NOTIFY_DONE", IMO.

The private data is constant to prevent the API users from using it. For
internal use we need to cast out the "const". It's a compilation error
to change the constant members.

Users could pass POWEROFF_PRIO_DEFAULT, but it's a boilerplate code
which I wanted to avoid by reserving 0 for the alias to
POWEROFF_PRIO_DEFAULT=128.

This removes a need from drivers to explicitly specify the default
priorities in the code, assuming that sys_off_handler is initialized to
zero.

There are a lot of drivers that just want to register power-off handler
with a non-default priority and don't need to stop the chain or do
anything else special. This is a convinient helper for them.

Please note that the callback here takes only the cb_data for the
argument, while sys_off uses "struct power_off_data".

Similar for the reset of the convinient helpers.

There are dozens of trivial platform/board-specific power-off handlers
in the arch/ code. Those handlers don't take any arguments, hence it's a
convinient helper that transits them to the new API neatly.
