Usually it wouldn't be possible to take this, as it would be
difficult to ensure bisectability.  The way we usually deal with this
is to have a shared immutable branch between the effected subsystems,
but we can only do this if the patches are sent as a set.  However, it
appears as though Mark has "of: Add standard property for poweroff
capability" on a tagged branch on its own.  This means, after checking
with Mark that this branch in indeed stable, I can merge it in and
base this commit on top of it.  Not many people setup their repos like
Mark does, so I guess you are lucky this time.

Once I've heard back from Mark, I'll let you know when I apply the
patch.
