> Patterned after async suspend, allow devices to mark themselves as wanting
> to perform async shutdown. Devices using async shutdown wait only for their
> dependencies to shutdown before executing their shutdown routine.
> 
> Sync shutdown devices are shut down one at a time and will only wait for an
> async shutdown device if the async device is a dependency.
> 
> Enabled by default, async shutdown can be explicitly enabled or disabled
> by using the kernel parameter "core.async_shutdown=<bool>"
