[PATCH] power: reset: th1520-aon: send RPCs from sleepable handlers

From: Han Gao

Date: Wed Sep 16 2026 - 02:55:53 EST


The AON RPC takes a mutex and waits for mailbox interrupts. The final
sys-off handlers run on atomic notifier chains, where this can sleep
with interrupts disabled.

Send the requests from the preparation handlers before syscore shutdown.
Retain a final power-off handler to advertise capability and report
failure without issuing another RPC. Let other providers handle
fallback.

Report RPC errors and allow one second after a successful return for the
asynchronous operation to take effect. This is a software fallback
timeout, not a hardware timing requirement.

Fixes: 2d81a24a74e5 ("driver: reset: th1520-aon: add driver for poweroff/reboot via AON FW")
